This was tonights dinner. I started it in the crockpot
in the afternoon and by dinner time the meat mixture
was done and I did basically nothing.
I put the mixture in softened flour tortillas and
folded them over, topped them with some sauce and
cheese and put them in the refrigerator to be cooked
later. They came out terrific.
Of course, if you like things remarkably hotter, add
more salsa, or enchilada sauce, or chiles.
I added hot sauce at the table to up the heat
quotient. Yummy.

Risa's Beef Enchiladas
|
adapted from Taste of Home, Jan 2003 issue
|
1 lb ground beef
1 onion, chopped
15 oz marinara sauce
1 tbsp chile powder, * see note
1/2 jar chipotle salsa
2 large flour tortillas
1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
|
In small bowl, mix together marinara sauce and chile
powder. Add salsa and mix together.
In crockpot, place beef, onion, marinara mixture. Put
on HIGH for 3 hours, stir every once in awhile.
To make enchiladas: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Place tortillas in a paper towel and put in the
microwave for 25 seconds to soften. Remove and place
2/3 cup of the beef mixture in the center of the
tortilla. Wrap up, wonton style, and place in the
bottom of a casserole that has some red sauce on the
bottom. Fill remaining tortilla and place in
casserole. Top with the marinara sauce and cheese.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes until cheese is
melted and sauce is bubbly.
I served with salad that had peppers and radishes
included. You can serve it with some white rice or
some refried beans.
Risa's notes:
* I used the mild version of Red Lion's Chile
Seasoning.
