Add sour cream, chilies, pimientos, salt and Tabasco. Heat through but do not boil or the sauce will break apart. Add the 1 cup of Swiss cheese a little at a time, stirring constantly.Remove from heat as soon as the cheese has completely melted.
Heat heavy skillet or griddle until hot. Quickly heat corn tortillas on skillet.
Spoon some of the spinach filling down the center of each tortilla.Add some some of the additional Swiss cheese and 1 to 2 tablespoons of cheese sauce.
