These were fantastic! My DH says that this is his favorite recipe for serve at home enchiladas. I used one can of Spanish rice and added it to the pan just before stuffing into the tortillas. Based on other reviews, I also used one 10 oz can of enchilada sauce mixed with 10 oz of salsa. Very good that way. Served these with Simple Homemade Refried Beans Yummo!

    These are very good enchiladas. I made as directed. I served the rice as a side dish rather than put them in the enchiladas. They were definitely spicy enough for us as I used medium salsa. Very simple to make. However, I prefer my enchiladas with enchilada sauce although the salsa is a nice variation. Thanks for sharing!

    Loved the enchildas!! I used mild salsa as a couple of folks here are not crazy about spice. It worked out great for them and was still nice for the rest of us. Next time I think I will stick some chopped green chilis in half the recipe to spice it up a bit for the spice lovers. I will be making this one often, easy, fast and tasty — thanks so much for sharing your recipe.

    What a yummy recipe! We really enjoyed this. I cut the recipe in half and made it as posted. But I served it over some leftover Saffron rice. Very good indeed. I did cook about 30 mins just to make sure that it was hot. I topped the dish with some sour cream and chopped cilantro. Thanks for posting.
