Layered Green Enchiladas

Slightly stale corn tortillas will retain their shape better than soft, fresh ones in this dish. If you have only fresh ones, let them stand uncovered at room temperature for about 8 hours. If you are pressed for time, put them directly on the oven racks for about 10 minutes while the oven preheats.
