Chicken Enchiladas

I invited a friend over for lunch today, and she mentioned that she likes Mexican food. So, I looked up a recipe for Chicken Enchiladas and found this one at allrecipes.com.  It was really tasty, and I'll definitely make it again.  This recipe reflects a few changes I made- cilantro instead of oregano, half of the tomato sauce & taco sauce the recipe called for...things like that.   This recipe can definitely be altered to taste.
Sorry, I forgot to take a final product photo.
