The Cheater's Recipe for Beef Enchiladas

This enchilada recipe is what most would probably call the cheater's way to make enchiladas. To me, it is a waste of time to roll them. I mean, they are going to chew the same whether you roll them or layer them so might as well save the time right? The important thing is the taste, not the presentation! Although, these still look good to me :)



What you need (9x9 pan):

1 pound beef (season with 1 tsp garlic salt, 1 tsp season all)
1 cup cheese (I use the Mexican blend but any that you like works!)
12 corn tortillas
15 ounce red enchilada sauce
10 ounce cream of chicken

Over medium heat, brown your hamburger meat while mixing in season all and garlic salt. While the meat is browning, in a separate pot over medium heat, stir enchilada sauce and cream of chicken until blended. Once the meat has cooked, drain the grease. When the sauce is ready, pour some into the bottom of your baking dish. Enough sauce to cover the bottom so the first layer of tortillas do not stick to the dish. Now pour the meat in the remainder of the sauce and you are ready to start layering. First, cover the bottom of the dish with four tortillas, then pour the meat and sauce on top of the tortillas to completely cover the tortillas with sauce.



Then repeat starting with tortillas. With this recipe, you will be able to have three layers of tortillas. Once you have used all of the sauce, you can add cheese to the top.


Place in the oven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until the edges start turn golden.

Let the enchiladas sit for about 5-10 minutes to cool down. Now you are ready to enjoy them! My husband made some salsa to top ours with but either way, this is a delicious and easy meal.

I hope you enjoy this dish as much as we do! I will be posting a recipe for spanish rice and beans soon :)
