    This was sooooo good! Quick, delicious, and a great way to get some veggies in! I made it with 1 lb. ground turkey instead and added a layer. Next time I'll cook the meat with a little garlic! - 1/21/11

    Very good!!! I used jabenero cheese as a substitute because we like food spicy and added refried beans on top after the bake was cooked. Will definetly make again and again! - 10/12/10

    I am going to make it with corn tortillas instead of flour for less calories. - 8/13/10

    This is an amazing recipe, easy, delicious and nutritious. I found that a half serving was sufficiently filling. - 3/31/10
