This is one of my families favorite recipes. Even, my daughter and my husband make it when I'm not home for dinner

I did not like the sweet taste of Miracle Whip in this recipe. I would make it again subbing cream cheese as well as the can of green chiles which I used this time. I would also add some sauteed onion. I felt like I was consuming a very calorie dense food (due to the thick, creamy sauce and lots of flour and cheese), but without a proportionate sense of rich flavor.

flavorless; unless I missed some hidden ingredient or I can't cook. Very bland.

Overall I thought the recipe was pretty good. I took the others' suggestions and added paprika, garlic salt, salt and pepper to the sauce to spice it up. Our family really liked it. I will probably make this again for dinner.

Wayy too much sauce in the end. It was pretty bland, but if you dip them in sour cream, it works.

This looks very tasty. . .just have one question before I make it -- when this is served, are the individual tortillas served, or is it supposed to be cut into like a casserole? Thanks!

Recipe was easy but not something i would make again. Chicken was bland and sauce was oooozy. Not very good.

Very cheesy and alot of liquid. Sauce makes more than you need for the amount of the tortillas. I would not use as much sauce and that would probably allow you to end up with two pans. If you don't like cheese you this is too much cheese.
