I made these last night with my leftover pork roast that I’d crock-potted in chicken broth several days ago. I forgot to add the cheese to the pork before I covered the tortillas, so I sprinkled the one cup on top of the shredded pork before adding the second layer of tortillas. I also left off the radishes, but did everything else as the recipe is written. OH MY GOSH!!! These are so awesome! My son loved it and said we have to add it to our permanent rotation. I brought the leftovers in to work and all seven of the women I share it with told me they were amazing. This is a real winner. 🙂
This casserole was terrible. The sour cream curdled and the texture was very mushy. I should’ve know when it called for 2c sour cream without any cream or flour that this would be off. It was extremely off. We struggled to eat one piece and threw the whole pan out. I would give this 0 starts if I could.
Hi Sharon! Sorry to hear it didn’t turn out for you. We’ve tested this recipe and never had this issue come up before. Are you making sure that the chicken broth and cream cheese are whisked together until completely smooth?
