This was quite flavorful for a lower fat version of enchiladas and quicker in that you don't spend time rolling them up. My husband said that he would probably ask for an additional can of black beans but otherwise he really enjoyed it and even said that it should be on my list of things to take for a potluck (which is high praise from him!). Thanks for the recipe ! Made for PAC Spring 2009.
