I loved it. Had only a 11x7 pan, and made the recipe lighter & healthier, by using light sour cream, and La Tortilla Factory Whole Wheat only 50 calories each. My recipe used only 6 tortillas with my pan size also. It fed 4 of us!

I personally felt it could have used more spice, and I like my food milder than most. I would add a taco seasoning packet when cooking up the turkey. Other than that our whole family loved it!

This recipe is outstanding. I've made it with the chicken rather than turkey and it's been a huge hit with everyone.
