Notes
Note that this recipe makes two trays of enchiladas. You can either freeze both or serve one that night and freeze the other for another time. And of course, if you have a large family, you can serve both at once. If you would like to make just one tray, half the ingredients.
*We have found that using a corn-flour blend tortilla rolls better than a fully corn tortilla while still having that nice corn flavour.
