I have no idea where I got this recipe. It has been sitting on my desktop for about 3 years, and I didn't try it until last night. If only I had known! This is so yummy! And you can't even tell that it's lowfat!

I would give these enchiladas a 2 out of 5 stars. The chicken was a bit dry and the spinach was not very flavorful. The sauce was also a bit bland. I probably won't make these again.
