This sounds so yummy! I made pork enchiladas tonight. It's made with leftover shoulder pork butt that was cooked in the crocked pot with some basic seasonings. To make the enchiladas I just shred up the meat, add a can of diced green chilies. I microwave my corn tortillias in a paper towel. Dip them in either red or green enchilada sauce (canned - I usually use a more authentic sauce not store brand), add meat and cheese. Roll em up and lay them in a cassarole dish. Top with more cheese and the remainder sauce. The sauce will be soaked up by the corn shells. Quick and easy meal.
