| Enchiladas are an easy delicious meal. There are endless options for the fillings.Use chicken, pork, beef, vegetarian, the combinations are endless. |
Today, I have made Easy Cheesy Beef Enchiladas with Ground Beef, Onions, Green Chiles and Olives.
My kids ate them up very quickly. Yes these are always a big hit. I always make a double batch just for that reason, they go very quickly.
Serve with a side of brown rice, refried beans and a Mango Margarita, ARRRIBBBA!

Hi there can you confirm the amount of meat mixture for each tortilla. It’s say 1 tblsp….it doesn’t seem enough.

Hi Marie,
Dependent upon the size of the tortilla, no more than 1/4 cup and at least one heaping tablespoon of meat mixture. You don't want your tortilla over-stuffed and breaking open when serving or overflowing in the baking pan.
Hope that helps,
