Made this last night - sooo good!!! I used low carb/fat tortillas instead of corn (had them on hand), and it was still very good. My husband loved it as well (he's not too concerned with his weight, like I am). Definitely will make this again, and have already shared the recipe with friends. - 1/12/12

Absolutely in love. It's totally going into the weekly rotation. The only changes I made were, I made my own salsa, I heated the bottom tortillas on a skillet (sprayed with no cal baking spray) to get them a little toasty, and I cut out two of the tortillas to save a few calories. Wonderful! Thx!! - 2/20/11

Thank you everyone! I always want to stuff too many goodies into my enchilada (burritos too for that matter), so getting rid of having to roll the individual enchiladas was my inspiration. Making it into layers, you can put all the tasty healthy stuff you want in the middle.

OMG, I LOOOVE this!!! I liked it better w/o the corn. I also omitted the olives, just because I don't care for them, so I might have saved myself a little fat by doing that, but OMG. Pure delight!!! Even my daughter - who, I believe, is even pickier than her mother! - ate some. Soooooooo good!! - 1/14/12
