Any recipe that contains both condensed tomato soup (which means Campbells) and lowfat condensed mushroom soup (which also means Campbells) should not be on a "meals matter" website. And the fact that they are used in an enchilada recipe makes it even worse. "Easy" meals don't have to mean just opening a can. You should teach us how to make "good" food easy. This is the first recipe I looked at and I didn't want to read any others.

I agree Las Palmas Enchilada sauce is the way to go, also much less sodium will be in your enchiladas which for those of us looking for low soduim that would work for me. I wouldn't make this, doesn't sounds good at all. I'm Mexican and I don't think so!!!

YUK! Enchiladas do not have a mix of tomato sauce, mushroom soup & salsa on them. For authentic flavor, buy a can of Las Palmas red enchilada sauce and pour that over y our meat cheese roll ups. You can get mild, medium or hot depending on taste. Also, season the meat with garlic, cumin & chili powder salt & pepper. Now that's an enchilada, and its still easy & fast.
