I love this recipe! Even for those who are weary of Mexican food (which I am, this recipe speaks to the stomach. Who can resist the combo of yummy pasta, sourcream, cheese goodness and tomatillos?

I made this over a year ago and lost the recipe. I finally found it again today and will definitely make it for tonight. I had given some of it to a friend and she and her husband loved it as well. I will not lose this recipe again!!!!

Great recipe! I've made it several times for carry-in dinners and it has never disappointed. I love that you can play around with this recipe easily and it always turns out great. Now to try it on the kids...that's the real test.

These were a nice change from the typical heavy enchiladas. The flavors were really good. I used motz cheese that I grated instead which turned out great. My hubby really like this dish as well. He stated that this was one of his favorite mexican dishes that I have made. The salsa is great as well. It adds a nice tang to the meal. I think next time I will make this with the fontina cheese. I will for sure make these again!

This recipe is really easy to adjust and make it your own. I love the combination of the cheese and tomatillo sauces. For those who found it time consuming try using the no boil lasagna noodles. Just put them in boiling water for about a minute then layer your ingredients. It turns into more of a lasagna but you dont have to suff shells. I did both methods and they turned out fantastic

This dish ROCKS! It is a huge hit with everyone.. Even Mr. Picky. Used combo fontina and pepper jack, omitted nutmeg. Added orange and red peppers to the onion/garlic saute. Took advice of others and used the canned fire roasted tomatoes and cumin. I intentionally under cooked the pasta - about 4 mins- perfect. If you can chop an onion and some garlic there's nothing labor intensive about this recipe. I'm guessing that those who found it so labor intensive and time consuming stood over the pot to watch the water boil. Get cooking this dis ASAP, you will not regret it!

Loved it! Found it easy to prepare. The only difficulty was finding a store that carried the fontina cheese. I topped them with diced tomatoes and Cilantro sprigs for color instead of the tomatillo sauce. Delish!

This is the most delicious dish I've made in years. It is a lot of work but well worth it.

Tasty but not as easy as the description claims it is. Very time consuming with baking the tomatillos and trying to stuff the shells without breaking them. I may make this again, but I won't start at 6 hoping to be done at 8, instead getting done closer to 11 after prep, cook, & assemble.
