Personal Notes:
Paula thinks it is a ton of sauce so doubles the filling recipe. Makes up extra pans of enchiladas then freezes the extra with the sauce in a baggie on top to be added during baking. To freeze with the sauce on them makes them too soggy. Flour tortillas also work well. I add chopped spinach to about everything I can hide it in to get more veggies into my boys.
