These are so yummy! I found this recipe in one of my Southern Living Annual recipe cookbooks. It called for corn tortillas but we like flour tortillas better. If you like spinach, you'll love these!

LOW FAT BEEF ENCHILADAS

Extra-lean ground beef and pinto beans form the base of these delicious, low fat beef enchiladas. Choose the spiciness of the enchilada sauce to suit your family's taste. One caveat, however: although this dish is low fat, it contains slightly more than half the recommended daily sodium limit.

SPINACH ENCHILADAS

I love spinach and have many good recipes using spinach. One of my favorite spinach dishes is spinach enchiladas at our local Mexican restaurant. I try to eat there at least once a week to get my spinach fix. I could eat this everyday. However, going out to eat is expensive, soooooooooo I decided to experiment. Here it is.
