(from veisner1977’s recipe box)

never tried but here is what came with the recipe: Cream cheese binds the filling and gives it a silky consistency. Look for red enchilada sauce in the Mexican food section of your supermarket. If you’re unable to find soy crumbles, chop thawed veggie burgers to use in their place.
