You can use more or less filling as you like. I used four teaspoons. If you don't want to take the time to roll enchiladas; can layer like lasagna for a casserole.

2. Coat bottom of 9x7 or 10x8 baking pan with 2 TBSP Green Chili Stew. Set aside.
3. Heat corn tortillas until pliable enough to roll. Cover to keep warm.
4. Place 1 tablespoon cheese filling(or four teaspoons) on one end of tortilla. Roll. Place in pan seam side down.
5. Using pastry brush, glaze enchilada with chili stew. Bake at 375 degrees for 5 minutes.
6.Remove from oven. Top with remaining cheese filling. Spread 1 cup Green Chili Stew over top. Bake for 5 minutes.
7. Remove from oven and top with 1/2 cup cheese. Bake for approximately 10 more minutes until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
