We had this tonight for dinner. It was very good, and I will be making it again; however, I think I will reduce to 1/2 pkg. of taco seasoning and use a little less cayenne pepper.

These were really good and easy to make. This was easy to make on a weeknight. I keep cooked hamburger in the freezer so that made it even easier to put together. I followed the recipe as written other then I added a lot more cheese then the recipe states because we are cheese lovers.

This was an excellent, easy to prepare, relatively inexpensive meal to prepare that goes a long way in satisying hearty appetites. I used cream of mushroom soup and canned chiles in chopped tomatoes. I also chopped cilantro and added it to the cream sauce. One enchilada is enough. I ate two and was full beyond the breaking point 8 hours later - very uncomfortable and I have a large appetite. Use light side dishes such as a green veggie or side green salad. Next time, I will cut the sauce in half-way too much was left over. Also I will use small rather than large tortillas for the smaller eaters in my family.

Has anyone checked the calorie index on this? It's healthier to make it by scratch and still have it turn out good!

These were really good! I halved the recipe (only 2 of us). I think the next time I'll go a little lighter on the cayenne pepper. Maybe 1/8 teaspoon instead of 1/4. They were a little hot but a really excellent taste. I liked the sour cream sauce. Will be making again. Thank you for a great recipe.
