Add a photoThis is the very first "Mexican Casserole" I ever prepared. Seems strange even saying that these day with Mexican cooking becoming so popular. I thought I would choose this recipe as my first post because I remember feeling like a real chef when I prepared it. I honestly remember thinking it was so complicated! I must say I have come a long way since preparing this recipe in 1982.
Another reason I wanted to share this recipe is because my son Sammy age 12 LOVES enchilada's. We often frequent our favorite little Mexican restaurant called "Little Mexico" where he will religiously order 4 cheese enchiladas and a large bowl of white gooey cheese dip! I was flipping through my recipe box and found this torn from a magazine. I can't believe to has survived through the years. I thought I would give it a try, I had not made it in at least 15 years, and I have made it twice in the last 3 weeks due to his request!
