It turns out ok if you are eating it right after you make it, but if there are left overs, the shells become very soggy and nasty. It wasn't a horrible recipe, but it wasn't that great either. I don't think I will make it again. Just too bland for my liking. Nothing special about it.<\/p>","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"03\/02\/2013 15:54","GUID":"d8c0a276f47648f3829084f4e234785e","MemberId":6341559,"Rating":3,"ScreenName":"dogcat_8","SubmittedDate":"03\/02\/2013 15:54"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":9,"DateRated":"11\/19\/2012 22:14","GUID":"2592acf0e3094266abeff9b5fc8e1306","MemberId":2397453,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"sherrilynnhildebrand","SubmittedDate":"11\/19\/2012 22:14"},{"Comment":"

I will never make any other enchilada recipes again, this is amazing and delicious! I do add a small bit of red enchilada sauce to the pan before adding the filled enchiladas, the sauce gets cooked into the enchiladas and adds an extra kick of taste. This recipe is on regular rotation in our family.<\/p>","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"02\/11\/2012 13:20","GUID":"59C668B959024A728A626189EBF8BD38","MemberId":613307,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"krissaean","SubmittedDate":"02\/11\/2012 13:20"},{"Comment":"

These were great! I don't know about the lady who said the sauce was sweet other than was she sure she used evaporated milk and not sweetened condensed milk? The big change I made was using Mexican blend cheese and my own spice mix for the burger. Came out beautifully. My husband ate 3 servings!

I love all enchiladas and wanted to give these a try! I figured since the ingredients are so bad for you that it must be good--I was wrong! The velveeta and evaporated milk made it taste sweet.

Did not like the meat mixture. Adding the cheddar cheese to the ground beef made a gummy mixture.

This is a terific recipe, though time consuming this is the true definition of cooking.
