    Incredible!
    Pretty darn good if you ask me. I had to fix it a bit since I didn't have a normal sized casserole dish or enough tomato, but it was delightful. I think the only thing I would chance is that I would try to incorporate some veggies and take out the tortillas. - 11/13/12

    Delicious! Everyone in my family said they'd give it an "A" grade. It was so easy to make and yet looked so fancy! Thanks for the great recipe! - 12/24/11

    Very Good
    I would make this again, my family enjoyed it very much! I was able to use up some homemade black bean & corn salsa I had leftover & added some "refried black beans" (heated up can of black beans and mashed - adding spices to it). I served this with a dollop of sour cream and lots of hot sauce (yum) - 11/3/10
