About
This recipe is very unique. So delicious, you won't miss the oil one bit! Very satisfying. When you make your enchiladas, dip the corn tortillas in warm water before stuffing. They become plyable. No frying necessary! Then bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 15 minutes.
I must give credit to Scott Uehlein the chef at The Canyon Ranch in Tucson for this wonderful recipe.
Look for the Canyon Ranch Cooks cookbook. My new favorite!
