My own enchilada recipe.


It may be a shock to many but now and then I cook. I have a simple, quick enchilada recipe that is both tasty and healthy.

Ingredients
1 lb. ground beef
2 jars of mild or medium salsa (depends on your taste)
6 whole wheat flour tortillas
1 16oz. bag of Mexican blend reduced fat shredded cheese

Brown the ground beef. Remove the fat. In pan, pour one jar of salsa over ground beef and mix well. Simmer in low/medium heat for about 10 minutes. Add 1/3 bag of cheese on ground beef mixture and blend until cheese melts. Take 6 tortillas and put a paper towel on top and one on the bottom. Microwave for 20 seconds. Take a cookie sheet and cover it with non-stick foil. On top of the foil, spread a thin layer of salsa. Take a tortilla and put 2-3 tablespoons of meat on it. Fold one edge over, then the other one, then turn the whole thing over, folded side down, in baking dish.
Repeat for each tortilla. Sprinkle leftover salsa. Place in oven at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and cover with rest of cheese. Return to oven until cheese melts.

This is a very filling meal. I sometimes add a small pot of Goya Mexican Rice to make it a bigger meal for more people. Hope you enjoy it.
