I'm sure I'm not the only one who LOVES Mexican food. Am I right? And I am also sure I am not the only one who can't afford to go out to eat at a Mexican restaurant every night, correct? So why not give Mexican flavors a try at home?
I have two enchilada recipes on my blog (Sour Cream Enchiladas and Chicken Enchiladas in Cream) and both are SO SO SOOOO good!!! But WHERE'S THE BEEF? (totally showing my age with that comment!! Who else knows where that came from??)
I've been making this Beefy Enchilada recipe since 2001!!!! For the life of me, I cannot figure out WHY I haven't shared this before! It's incredibly easy and, clearly, one we enjoy since I've been making it for so long.
The recipe is from Quick Cooking with Karin Calloway and it looks like that cookbook can only be found used now. :( Karin is a chef and did weekly cooking tips and recipes at The Augusta Chronicle in Augusta, GA. She also had a weekly spot on a local TV station sharing recipes. Every recipe of hers I have ever tried have been so tasty!!!
Hope y'all enjoy trying these enchiladas!
Beefy Enchiladas
1 pound ground beef
1 package taco seasoning (or make your own taco seasoning)
1 (4 oz) can diced green chiles
8 fajita size flour tortillas
8 oz cream cheese (I prefer neufchatel- it's just creamier)
1 (14 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (10 oz) can mild enchilada sauce
2 cups Monterrey Jack cheese, shredded
Brown ground beef and drain well. Return to pan and add taco seasoning and green chiles and remove from heat.
In the middle of a flour tortilla, spread 1 oz of cream cheese.
Then carefully place 1/4 cup of the beef mixture down the center of the tortilla and roll up. Place in the prepared 9x13 pan. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Pour tomatoes and enchilada sauce over enchiladas and sprinkle with cheese. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove foil after 30 minutes and bake an additional 5-10 minutes, until cheese is bubbly.
Makes 4-6 servings.

Our love of Mexican food began when we lived in southern California. That love followed us to West Virginia! Thank you for sharing these recipes with us at Party in Your PJ's. I've pinned!
