I really liked this recipes. It is extremely versitile. I used a veggie meat, instead of ground beef and despite never even trying veggie meat before these enchiladas still turned out great! I also replaced the tomato sauce w/ 1 1/2 cans enchilada sauce and made only six instead of eight enchiladas. I kept everything else pretty much the same as the orig. recipe. My husband and I really liked these a lot. I will definitely make these again in the future but next time using real meat! Oh, these were good as leftovers for lunch! -
Followed exact recipe. We love mexican food but I cant eat "hot" and my DH likes HOT/HOTTER/HOTTEST. This recipe satisfied both of us. It was not hot but the sauce was so full of flavor, he didnt miss the heat. This one is a keeper and I am making it again this week so my DD can try it. Thanks for a great recipe. -
These are so good! Mexican type cooking is fairly new to my family, but boy are we hooked, these enchiladas are full of flavour and very filling. I substituted a tin of tomato soup for the tomato sauce (cant buy here) and the end result was great. Served with Karens Green Chili Rice and enjoyed our meal immensely. -
Great Recipe. The whole family loved it. Next time I will make a double batch. Very good!! Thanks for posting this one.

This is OMG good! This is my first time making enchiladas and you made it easy, and worth it! I did add some black beans to the meat mixture, but otherwise I followed the recipe. Very, very good.Thanks, Carole in Orlando

This is a new family favorite! I did have to make some substitutions for stuff I didn't have, I was out of chili powder so I used cumin and I don't use garlic powder so I used 3 cloves of minced fresh garlic. I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were excellent and very filling too. I've printed this out and tucked it into my file to make again soon. -

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
