  ***For this day, use corn tortillas so you'll have some left for the hogout casserole later in the week.

Enchiladas are so easy, and you don't need to buy the sauce at the store... just follow this recipe and you'll never use store-bought sauce again. P.S. You can use either flour or corn tortillas, and any kind of cheese will do... From the picture, you can tell that my family prefers cheddar.
