Hot Mama's Notes:
These were easy enough to make.  They were delicious eaten hot fresh from the oven.  The next day, after refrigeration and reheating, not so much.  Okay, but not delicious.  Just something to think about!  Also, I had to use dried cilantro, as I didn't have any fresh.  I'm not certain I would make these again.  They are good, but not great.
