Easy to make and tasted great. I used flour tortillas instead of corn. We will make again. Thanks.

Very Good! I substituted cream of mushroom soup for cream of chicken because I wanted to make it meatless. The mixture of spinach and corn flavors was really good. I gave the recipe 5 stars, and my husband thought the spinach flavor was too overpowering gave it a 3. (Thus, the average of 4) My husband thought it woudl be better if you first top with regular enchilada sauce, this drizzle a smaller portion of the spinach sauce over top it. I served this with Simple Homemade Refried Beans Recipe #202416 and the combination worked very well together!

Very good enchiladas! The spinach is not inside these enchiladas, but part of the creamy & tasty sauce which smothers them. I quite liked the unique spinach/corn flavor combination. My family, however, gave it mixed reviews. Note: I used 3 tablespoons of colby-jack cheese inside each enchilada and 14 of them fit into my 9x13" baking dish.

I made this for lunch today. It was really good. I subbed in an onion instead of green onions, and I used jalapeno peppers instead of chiles. I would use more jalapenos next time for a little kick in the the spice department. In all, it was pretty good, but just a tad bit bland for my taste.
