We really enjoyed this recipe. I suggest a longer cooking time(about 45 min)for it to firm up more. I used sour cream and guacamole to top it. I think it tastes like cheese enchiladas. We will add this to our regular weekly menu! Thanks for sharing!

Well, this gets at least one of its stars for being the most unique recipe I've made this year! I will say first that mine never solidified enough to turn it out of the pan. I even baked it and cooled it a bit longer, but after a while the natives got restless and we just dished it out like casserole.The flavor was surprisingly mild; I doubled the garlic and next time I will probably add 1/2 t or so of salt as well. The mildness could be b/c I used cheddar instead of pepper jack for DS. We served with cheese and salsa instead of enchilada sauce, and the salsa added a nice crunch. DH and DS really enjoyed it, but for me I think I will saute the onions next time as they were a bit too raw and crunchy for my tastes. The servings are HUGE, btw, and quite hearty. Thanks for this creative, healthy, and TOTALLY filling dish. Made for Newest Zaar Tag.
