Ingredients:

  • 12 corn tortillas
  • 2 cups shredded mild Cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups enchilada sauce, 2 cups of chili sauce (homemade with chili powder, water and flour) – th’s the way my husband does it! Alternatively, it’s also possible to use cans Old El Paso, but this second option is for the ‘weak ones’! 😮

  • 1 cup chopped lettuce (garnishing)

    1. The stack, with the chili sauce and cheese goes into the oven – that’s when all the ingredients ‘blend together’… and the cheddar cheese melts just perfectly! 😮 Thanks for the offer, Barb! Much appreciated!
