    we really liked this dish, however I did make a few changes -- I used at least double the amount of chicken, used cheddar cheese, and only one large jalapeno. I don't think I will cook the tortillas again before filling because they did almost start to get crisp - you have to watch them closely. Served with some sour cream - my family really liked!

    This was delish, and my boyfriend loved them :] I changed muenster cheese for a Mexican blend.

    The chicken itself, once sauteed as directed and shredded, is DELICIOUS. I plan on using that part of the recipe in the future, as it was really flavorful. I had issues with the rest of the recipe though. It says to initially bake the tortillas in the oven for 5 mins... well after 3 minutes they were crisp and unable to be rolled up. I recommend skipping that step. The seasonings indicated don't create a nice flavor... I used 1 jalapeno as I don't like my food too hot, and it was fine. But the flavor wasn't Mexican... I mean, muenster cheese?! Why not cheddar or monterey jack? Muenster is too smoky for this and it overpowered everything else. I love garlic, but again, the garlic overpowered everything else. If I tried this again I would use at least twice the chicken that is called for, and more tomatoes.

    Very light and tasty but I did change a few things. Instead of the allspice I added ground cumin, chili powder, a handful of cilantro and chopped red onion to the chicken/broth mixture. Also, I used chicken broth instead of water. I didn't toast the tortillas and it was fine. My family loved this so I'll be making it again.

    This was a great recipe. It was easy and very tasty. But, was a little disappointed in the sauce. I followed the recipe...but my suace was too watery.

    These were really tasty and I'll be adding this recipe to my "go to" list. There was no heat at all, though, so I'll be adjusting that to my taste next time... maybe leaving some of the Jalapeno seeding or finding something else to zest it up. I made half with corn tortillas and half with flour... didn't matter to me, they both rocked.

    This was a great recipe! I used flour tortillas and omitted the jalapeño for my kids.I also used a mixed mexican cheese blend. Will make again!

    Followed the recipe to the letter and wasn't disappointed, just not impressed.
    What I'm going to do next time: sub flour torts for the corn, 1/2 the all-spice, 1/2 the jalapenos and season to taste with S&P and cumin.

    These were really, really good! The "light" part went out the window when I added some cheese dip to the top, and I used flour tortillas instead of corn (personal preference. When I tried the sauce by itself I was worried it would be too spicy for my family, but when everything got added together it was just the right amount of heat.
