Pour more enchilada sauce over top and sprinkle with more cheese if you want.
Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes. Serve with fresh chopped cilantro, salsa, guacamole and/or sour cream.

Enchilada Sauce: Combine ingredients in sauce pan and cook, stirring constantly until the mix boils and thickens. About 7-10 minutes.
