Encharitos Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Add oil to skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic, stir for a few minutes until onion becomes translucent. Add ground beef. Break up with spoon and continue to do so and stir until all meat is browned. Add cumin, salt and pepper. Stir and cook for a few minutes, then taste for seasoning.
• 2. Add refried beans, and mix to thoroughly combine. Let mixture cool for 10 minutes.
• 3. Lay one tortilla on a flat surface and spoon 3-4 tablespoons of the mixture and spread over the tortilla. Leave a quarter inch of space around the edge. Roll up the tortilla and place in a greased 9" x 13" baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Leave a little space between the rolls if you can. The number of rolls will depend on how much filling you use in each. (Leftover meat mixture can be refrigerated and is great for nachos.) Pour enchilada sauce over the rolls and covering the rolls completely with sauce. Sprinkle on grated cheese and top with olives and/or onions, if desired. Bake at 350F, uncovered, for 20-30 minutes. It's done when the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbling around the sides.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Brown the ground beef and drain off the fat. If using chicken, just throw the taco seasoning with the chicken into a skillet. Follow the taco seasoning directions for the rest of this preparation.
• Warm the tortillas in the microwave, covered with a damp paper towel, for 1 minute.
• Open the can of beans and place 1 tablespoon (or more, if desired) down the middle of the tortilla. Spoon 2 tablespoons (or more, if desired) of the beef or chicken on top of the beans. Roll the tortilla up, the beans and protein lengthwise, leaving both ends open. Continue until all tortillas are used.
• Place rolled tortillas in a 13"x9" baking dish. I usually place the "seam" side down. Open the enchilada sauce and pour oven the rolled tortillas and top with as much cheese as desired. Place in the oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Top with any garnishes desired.

Steps:

• Put all ingredients into saucepan and blend with immersion blender.
• Simmer med low for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a medium skillet over medium high heat, cook the ground beef and onion until beef is evenly browned and onion is tender.
• Prepare the enchilada sauce according to package directions. Pour 1/4 cup of the sauce into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• On each flour tortilla, place an equal portion of the ground beef mixture and about 1 ounce of Cheddar cheese, reserving at least 1/2 cup of cheese. Then tightly roll the tortillas and place seam side down in the baking dish.
• Pour the remaining sauce over the top of the enchiladas and sprinkle with the remaining cheese and olives.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and cheese is thoroughly melted.
