    I've made this many times (i found it on cooking light a few years ago) and it is one of my favorite recipes. My family loves it as well.

    I use green enchilada sauce (an accident when I bought the can the first time I made it!) and I double the red pepper. - 9/13/12

    I made this for dindin tonight and it was yummy! I added Coriander to the batter and then chopped Cilantro on top right before the cheese. Used egg beaters instead of the other eggs called for..would make again! - 8/17/13
