Some people like enchiladas
but some people LOVE enchiladas
I am one of these people but with a twist.
I love them but I am not a fan of red sauce, of any kind really
I found a solution by mixing green chili sauce to the
despised red sauce and it is the perfect combination.
If you don’t know what to make for dinner tonight
but you don’t want a meal loaded with fat ~ make this recipe!
Beef Enchiladas
You will need:
- 1lb lean ground beef
- 3tbsp olive oil for frying
- Pinch of cumin
- 10 corn tortillas

1. Sauté' meat and onions until meat is crumbly and onions are limp.
2. Add 3/4 cup of the mixed enchilada sauce, cumin, salt and simmer 30 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, soft fry tortillas in olive oil and drain on paper towels.
4. Dip each tortilla in remaining heated enchilada sauce, coating both sides.
5. Divide meat and onion mixture evenly among the tortillas.
6. Roll and place overlapped side down in baking dish.
