I created this twist on enchiladas one night when I wanted an easy oven meal and had extra tortillas on hand. It turned out better than I expected. Pair it with steamed green beans or a tossed salad, and dinner is ready! -Yvonne Opp, Greenville, Pennsylvania

The enchiladas were a bit too saucy for my taste, but overall they were still good.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my enchiladas turned out dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I'm not a big fan of enchiladas, but these were actually really good. The Italian sausage and ricotta cheese filling was very flavorful.
