These enchiladas are quick and very easy to make. Impress your family and friends with your newly found culinary talents. This dish doesn’t require a lot of skills but it tastes wonderful and delicious, which is one of the reasons I love it. Even my husband who is not a Mexican food lover, gives this dish two thumbs up. C’mon let’s try it.
Creamy Beef Enchiladas
What you’ll need:
1lb. low-fat ground beef
4oz. Chive and Onion Cream Cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
5 flour tortillas 8″ in size
1/2 cup red enchilada sauce, mild or medium
1/2 cup shredded Colby & Monterey Jack Cheese
How it’s done:
Pre-heat oven at 350°F
On a saucepan at medium-high heat cook beef until no longer pink. Drain excess fat and return to pot.
Add the cream cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper to the beef and mix until well combined.
Lay the tortillas on a flat surface and place 1/2 cup of the beef mixture alongside the center of each tortilla.
Fold one side of the tortilla towards the center and over the filling, then fold the other side over the first fold.
Place enchiladas seam side down on a greased 9×13 baking dish.
Pour enchilada sauce evenly over tortillas and sprinkle with the cheese.
Bake for 25 minutes and serve hot next to mexican rice, refried beans, a crisp salad or just on their own.
Enjoy!
