Yes it does, and something like that should be called entomatadas, not
enchiladas, because they feature tomatoes, not chiles.

But there are other things about this recipe that have nothing to do
with either Tex-Mex or Mexican.

I've never seen or heard of anyone in real life dipping flour, instead
of corn, tortillas into sauce and trying to turn such a soggy mess
into any kind of 'ladas, be they enchiladas, entomatadas, enmoladas,
or enfrijoladas.

I can't imagine someone cooking such a mess as the oringinal poster's
recipe and then being proud of having cooked it.
