Beef Cheese Enchiladas With Zucchini Recipe 55

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9x13-inch pan with nonstick spray. 2. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add ground beef; break apart with a spoon or spatula to crumble the meat. Saute the meat on medium heat until browned (about 5 minutes). Tilt the pan and spoon the fat out of the pan; discard. Remove cooked meat to a bowl. 3. Return pan to medium heat and add onion and zucchini. Saute until just softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the pan and add to the meat mixture; set aside. 4. Add 1/2 cup of sauce to the prepared pan. Spread it around so it coats the entire bottom of the pan. 5. Assemble the enchiladas: Place tortilla on a work surface. Spoon 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the meat mixture down the middle. Sprinkle 2 Tablespoons of cheese on top of the meat. Drizzle 1 Tablespoon of sauce on top. Wrap the tortilla around the filling tightly and place it seam-side-down in the pan. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling until you have finished filling 12 tortillas. Place the tortillas side-by-side in the pan- it's okay if they are all snuggled in there tightly. 6. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the top of the stuffed enchiladas. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. 7. Remove pan from the oven and take off the foil. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top; return to the oven and let the cheese melt (about 5 minutes). 8. Serve immediately with desired condiments.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until no longer pink. Drain off grease and season with chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, and salt. Mix in the tomato sauce and 2 cups of the water. Simmer over low heat. Mix the remaining water with the flour and sugar until flour is dissolved; stir into the simmering meat sauce. Simmer until thickened, about 10 minutes.
• While the sauce is cooking, heat oil in another skillet over medium-high heat. Warm tortillas in the hot oil until pliable. Fill each tortilla with a little bit of cheese, and place in a 9x13 inch baking dish, reserving some of the cheese to sprinkle on top. Pour the meat sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas. Top with remaining cheese.
• Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until cheese is melted and lightly browned.

Steps:

• Heat large skillet over medium-high heat; add meat and bell pepper. Cook 5 minutes, stirring until meat crumbles and is no longer pink; drain. Add taco seasoning mix and 1/2 cup water. Simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes or until sauce thickens, stirring occasionally.
• Spoon 1/3 cup meat mixture down center of each tortilla; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll up; place seam-side down in greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Spoon salsa over enchiladas.
• Cover with foil; bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven 18 minutes or until heated through. Uncover; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 2 minutes more or until cheese is melted. Serve with lettuce, tomato, if desired, sour cream.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, saute peppers and onion in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in tomato sauce, tomatoes, chili powder, sugar, marjoram, basil, cumin, salt, cayenne and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 30-35 minutes or until slightly thickened. Discard bay leaf., Preheat oven to 350°. Place 1/3 cup zucchini down the center of each tortilla; top with 2 tablespoons cheese and 2 teaspoons olives. Roll up and place seam side down in two 13x9-in. baking dishes coated with cooking spray. Pour sauce over the top; sprinkle with remaining cheese., Bake, uncovered, 30-35 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with sour cream if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Slice ends off zucchini and cut them lengthwise. Scoop out centers, leaving a 1/4-inch wall around each. Line up zucchini "boats" on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Heat olive oil over medium-low heat in a large saucepan. Add onion and bell pepper; cook and stir until onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in cooked chicken, cream cheese, and taco seasoning until well combined and creamy.
• Spoon chicken mixture evenly into zucchini boats. Pour enchilada sauce over each, making sure to cover any exposed zucchini and barely cover the bottom of the baking sheet. Top each with Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is just starting to brown, about 25 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°. Combine beef, zucchini onion and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes, breaking apart meat. Add chili powder, paprika, pepper, cumin and oregano. Mix well and continue to cook until meat has browned and most of the liquid has evaporated. Add cream cheese and melt in. Continue to cook until mixture has thickened.
• Add all ingredients for enchilada sauce to a medium saucepan. Mix well and bring to a boil. Simmer for 5 minutes.
• Heat a skillet for tortillas over medium-high heat. Add about ½ teaspoon of oil and heat 1 tortilla on each side until lightly browned. Continue cooking tortillas until are cooked. Spoon beef filling evenly between corn tortillas. Roll and place seam side down in a greased casserole dish. Spoon over enchilada sauce and sprinkle on cheese. Bake at 450° for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
• Garnish with fresh cilantro, cheese and green onions before serving.

Steps:

• 1. In a large saucepan, cook onions and garlic in the olive oil until onions are clear on medium heat.
• 2. Gather seasoning and measure them out while onions and garlic are cooking.
• 3. Add tomato sauce, 3 cups of water, and all the seasoning.
• 4. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 45 minutes adding more water as needed, stirring about every 15 minutes. I usually add 1- 2 more cups in the cooking process. At the end you should have a thick flavorful sauce.
• 5. Allow sauce to cool a bit. Prepare a large pan by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• 6. Dip corn tortillas in sauce making sure they covered well on each side. This will soften them a bit and make rolling easier.
• 7. Place a small amount of meat and cheese in the center of the corn tortilla.
• 8. Roll the tortilla and place it seam down in the pan.
• 9. When you have made the desired amount of enchiladas top with 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce per 11-12 enchiladas. You can put more sauce but don't put too much or they will be soggy.
• 10. Top with optional diced onions and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese per 11-12 enchiladas.
• 11. Bake covered for about 40 min.
• 12. Uncover and bake another 10 min.
