EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

You can use Cheddar, colby or Monterey Jack cheese instead of the blend. If you want to add extra spice, use hot pepper Monterey Jack cheese in place of some of the blend.

I thought these were pretty good and so did my husband. I took others advice and sprayed the pan before adding the enchilada sauce and I put taco seasoning in with the beef. There was definitely no lack of flavor. If I were to make these again I would probably make my own enchilada sauce. I didn't really prefer the one that was suggested. I would also use corn tortillas because they hold up so much better. I just finished the leftovers and the tortillas were pretty soggy :( Overall, I would try it again. It was very simple to make.

My husband thought these were his favorite enchiladas I've ever made (mostly many different chicken or vegetarian recipes). I don't know about that but they were very good! I followed the recipe exactly (except for using sour lean, and reduced fat cheese). I made the pan and put it in the freezer; it's also so relaxing to know dinner's already taken care of one night! I wish they were a little spicier so I might tweak the recipe a tiny bit that direction for next time - but as is they are also a great family recipe as the rest of my family doesn't like spice as much as we do.

I think the next time I make them, I will use corn tortillas, that I will fry in oil ,just until they are hot, not crispy. I did add sliced olives, sliced jalapenos, diced tomatoes, onto the tops of the enchiladas before pouring on the sauce, I added red pepper seasoning, chili powder, cumin & garlic powder to the meat & corn mixture while cooking.This turned out 8 burritos.I gave it three stars, because it was too bland, but could be a 5 star with the above mentioned items. Fajita seasoning might also be good in this recipe.
