Great!! My carnivore husband always crinkles his nose when I say I am making a meatless dish so I LOVE when it is a hit!! This was so good! I used closer to a tsp of cumin because I was near the bottom of my spice jar. Used it up so I can replace. I also did half corn and half flour tortillas. While both are really good, the flour ones held their shape better. I also only used approx 1/4c of red enchilada sauce on the bottom, the rest on top with a little additional cheese. Again; great meal! This makes a LOT – especially for the two of us but wasn’t up to trying to halve the recipe either. Not sure how leftovers – considering the dainty avocado- will hold up but this dish was very flavor, easy and delicious! Thanks Chef Oma!!

My family loved this recipe a lot. We did use flour instead of corn tortillas just because we like those better. Otherwise I followed the recipe except for the fact I doubled it. It went very fast.

I added a can of refried beans to make it easier to keep the filling in the tortillas as I formed the enchiladas and some fresh corn off of the cob for a little sweetness. Yummy!

I really liked this. I sautéed the peppers and might add onions next time. Great flavor overall, especially with cilantro and pico on top!

Really great flavor! I didn’t have Pico de Gallo so I used diced tomatoes and shredded lettuce in place.

I thought this would be yummy, but I couldn’t taste the avocado. Next time I’d just put some slices on top after baking. Also, the corn tortillas were so soggy and mushy. Wondering if first crisping them in skillet would be helpful.
