This was quick and so good. You do have to warm up the whole wheat tortillas before filling them. I didn't have time to let the cilantro sauce sit but it still tasted great.

Fixed this for the family and even with my picky bunch it was loved. I did double the Creamy Cilantro-Jalapeno Sauce and left out the Jalapeno's in the second half for the ones the don't like spicy food.
