Here is a super yummy take on enchiladas that is great if you have to bring food to someone who has had a baby or is sick or anything. It is nice because you can also freeze it and then just thaw it and cook it. I like to make it and serve with corn and rice. Try it one night it is super good. My neighbor, Lisa, brought it to me when I had Cooper and now it is a favorite.
