I found a recipe for an Enchilada pie, the more I looked at it, the more I thought, this doesn't look right, and it doesn't have what I want. I wanted the look of a lasagna but the taste of Enchiladas and refried beans. SO I came up with this recipe,... More

This sounds great, mis7. Got it bookmarked and will try it soon!


This was fantastic, mis7! I halved the recipes (3 tortillas per layer) and it easily still filled my pan up. I also used flour tortillas instead of corn tortillas because that's what I had on hand and prefer them. Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly. Delicious!


Do you use red or green enchilada sauce?
