My daddy made some of the best darned enchiladas. This is his recipe, give or take. Instead of using a cookie sheet and doing layers of three corn tortillas, we will use a deep dish pan, plenty of corn tortillas, and my homemade enchilada sauce, also on this site. This is sooo good! You can also use your favorite enchilada sauce in place of mine. I am sure you will enjoy this. I have, virtually all my life, but as plain enchiladas.
