A superb post. Thank you!


Wow sounds fabulous. Just bookmarking to make sometime soon.


Oh, we love seafood. A great twist! Great stuff.


Sounds like the seafood enchiladas at Guadaulajarda restuarant here. I have to try this during Lent! Thanks!


I cant wait to try this!


Made this last night and it was wonderful. I did make a few changes: used roasted chilaca peppers instead of the bell and threw in some cilantro.
I was surprised of the flour tortillas instead of corn but I did like it. I think I'll try the corn next time and see if we like that better.
Thanks for the recipe!!!


Sounds wonderful!
