What is the best enchilada sauce to use?

Homemade is best for flavor, but a quality store-bought red sauce works too.

Do you have to fry the tortillas for enchiladas?

No! Simply warm them slightly to make rolling easier. Frying is optional for extra texture.

Cheddar, Monterey Jack, or Mexican blend melt beautifully and add rich flavor.

Yes! Assemble, cover, and refrigerate up to 24 hours before baking .
