    Hi ecoelle,

    I find mozzarella Cheezly melts very well provided it's covered in the oven, and that's what I use on top of the enchiladas.

    I'll post the enchilada recipe after I make it as I usually just "wing it" with enchiladas and don't have a recipe written down for it.

    It's amazing all the "cheesy" things you can do with Cheezly and Sheese, like macaroni cheese, lasagne, cauliflower cheese, cheese on toast, etc. No need to give up creamy, cheesy things if you don't eat dairy!
