    I didn't notice any place for the green chilies. Did I miss that part?

  2. Jodie says:

    I have very picky eaters, are these spicy? Have not cooked with green chilies before?

  3. Cheryl at Snaps of Ginger says:

  6. Shelly says:

    I am excited to try a new enchilada recipe!

  7. Chris says:

    I have the same question as Jana :) Guess I will just add green chiles to the soup & enchilada mixture.

  8. Darla says:

    I would mix the green chilies in the large bowl mixture. You can buy the mild if you don't want them hot. Toleration for spiciness varies from person to person. Also, make sure to pay attention to the label. Jalepeno peppers can also be sold in the same size can with a similar label. Still good to use if you like them.

  9. claire k says:

    In the picture, it looks like you used a flour tortilla, but I know enchiladas are traditionally corn tortillas. There was no specification of what kind of tortillas you used in your recipe. Was it corn or flour?

  10. Cyd says:

    We like flour tortillas. That is what we used for this recipe.

  11. Teresa says:

    I always make this recipe without the green chiles & it is delicious! It is one of our favorites!

  12. Hailey says:

    Made these last night, but replaced green enchilada sauce with red. Must say I am in love with this recipe!!

  13. Sheila rogers says:

    I made these tonight i used cr of chicken soup and put onions in my mixture wouldnt have it any other way:)

  14. Donna says:

    Couldn't find any kind of enchilada soup in any grocers here. Do you have any suggestions for substitutions?

  15. S Coffin says:

    Need an alternative to the soup used in this recipe. It is not available anywhere.

  16. Cyd says:

    Campbell's Chunky spicy chicken quesadilla soup is a good substitute.
