Notes

You can make this really low maintenance by just layering all the ingredients like a lasagna. It ends up more like a casserole and it’s very delicious. (See this recipe.)

This makes a lot of sauce, so you might have 1-2 cups of sauce left over for later. Lucky you!

Dipping the tortillas in hot water, hot oil, or the sauce real quick before rolling them up is always a good idea. Keeps everything nice and soft while baking.

You can add any additional mix-ins you’d like – sautéed mushrooms, white beans, spinach, or whatever is striking your fancy.
