My family really liked these. The only change I made was that I separated some of the chicken and salsa mix before adding the green chilies. Then added the cheese to both mixes, so that I could make some not so spicy for my young children. They eat them up.

these are great! Not too spicy, but full of flavor. I do not like corn tortilla's either, flour tortilla's worked wonderfully for this recipe! Yum
