This was really good. I made my own enchilada sauce and my own cornbread recipe. Thanks for sharing this recipe. It’s a keeper!
We made this for dinner last night and really enjoyed it. Next time we will serve it with shredded lettuce and a dollop of sour cream!
I used butter beans(cannelloni beans) instead of red kidney. There were leftovers which we warmed up the next day and served dip style with corn chips
