Personal Notes:
In the height of tomato and pepper season this year, we have had enchiladas every evening this week and I think I have finally perfected my sauce. I never measure anything so this is a rough guess as to what I actually made.

To assemble, spread a few tsp of sauce on the bottom of the pan. I use flour tortillas or homemade corn masa tortillas (if I am feeling ambitious) to fill as the store-bought corn ones just don't do it for me. My Favorite filling is sauted green chiles and onion with seasoned Cherokee Trail of Tears blackbeans and jack cheese. Spread sauce on top, and put a big wide stripe of grated jack cheese or mozzarella cheese down the middle. Bake at 375 uncovered for about 25 minutes. Tasty enough to justify turning on the stove in this 100 degree heat!
