Review: LOVED. I've made a few variations of this recipe but this is my favorite. That fresh cilantro really made an impact and it was a quick, easy to put together recipe thanks to the cans and the ability to make all of the shells flexible simultaneously. This one is a keeper - I hope it reheats well! I could even see adding fat-free refried beans to take it from 4 to 6 servings!
