The rolled up thing is an American invetion. But I completely forget where I heard that. Rick Bayless maybe. Anyway, one of the Tex-Mex restaurants here in Austin do their enchiladas layered instead of rolled. Yum. And I'm saving this recipe because it looks delish.

Dry chicken would not be good at all--but nice moist chicken would be quite tasty. Erin--next summer, in August, try a Ginger Gold from the farmers market. They are absolutely awesome. Like Honey Crisps, but even more tart and spicy with a good balance of sweetness. And they are really crisp, too. Katie--the possibilities are wonderful with this dish--vegetarian options are fantastic, too. Jim--fresh from the tree R D's are okay--not nearly so bad as the ones which are months old at the supermarket--but they are still not what I would call delicious.

Never thought of combining apples with salsa verde, but now I can't wait to try it. What <i>is</i> the deal with Red Delicious apples? Considering they claim to be delicious in their very name you'd think they'd be, y'know, better. We may have to cook this on Monday; it looks so good!

Mexiacan lasagne! It must have more and very different flavors than regular old noodle based... opens up a whole new world of flavors! What a marvelous idea! Mexiacan lasagne!

I used to think I didn't like apples too much either. Then I went to the farmers market and bought Honey Crisps. I never knew an apple could taste that way!! I must try this recipe really soon!!
