- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 c chopped onion (or about 1/4 c dried minced)
- 1 tsp salt
- 8 6-inch flour tortillas
- taco sauce
- 1 c shredded cheddar (I use a mixed blend, mexican)
- 4 tbsp butter/margerine
- 4 tbsp flour
- 2 tsp (2 cubes) chicken buillion
- 2 1/3 c water
- 2 tbsp (I actually use 2 of the small cans) chopped canned green chili peppers
- 2/3 c sour cream (you can definitely add sour cream substitutes such as IMO to this instead)
Optional ingredients chopped tomatoes, cilantro, "garnish" of choice.
Directions
- Cook beef and onion until meat is browned and onion is tender; drain off excess fat. Stir in salt.
- Divide the meat into the tortillas and top each with even amounts of the taco sauce.
- Set aside about 1/3 of your cheese and use the rest to split evenly on top of the taco sauce.
- Roll and place seam side down in a 13x9x2
- In a saucepan melt the butter, blend in the flour and chicken bouillon and stir in water.
- Cook and stir till thickened and bubbly then add the chili peppers.
- Stir about half the hot mixture into the sour cream and then return to the saucepan and mix.
- Pour the mixture over the totillas in the baking dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top and bake at 350 degrees F until heated through, (about 15-30 minutes).
You can and should experiment with your enchiladas. In the picture below (we had four different styles of enchiladas on the table so each had a way of identifying what it was.), this was a spicy dish so it had a drizzle of the spicy taco sauce over the top of it.
