Enchilada Casserole

Here's a quick, tasty casserole recipe that I found in the Chicago Tribune. I normally stay away from recipes that use 'one can cream of whatever' but this one's an exception. I threw it together one day after work (out of desperation) and we were quite pleased with the results. The leftovers taste even better, warmed up the next day!
