Senor Pico's Cheese Enchiladas image

This recipe is from a popular restaurant in California. When I made these I felt that there was way too much enchilada sauce and would half that next time. I also forgot to add the salt and msg in the filling and thought it was plenty salty enough without.

Overall, I thought these cheese enchiladas were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I found that the tortillas were a bit too crispy for my liking. I would recommend cooking them for a shorter amount of time.

The cheese enchiladas were a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more spices to the cheese filling.
