Found the correct website. https://www.oldelpaso.com/recipes/easy-beef-enchiladas Was easy and good. i used a bed of rice before i put it in the oven and forgot the cheese in with the meat but still turned out great.

When you click for instructions it doesn't give you them. Luckily I remembered how my dad used to make them so I just went off of what I remembered. They turned out wonderful

For starters, when I tried to view the instructions, the actual dish was not available. So I used past enchilada experience. I seasoned the ground beef with a homemade enchilada seasoning. I added diced onion. I cooked this in a slow cooker, so I added 1 cup of instant rice/water & sweet corn. I put the enchiladas on top of that & cooked in low for about 4 hours. Turned out awesome!

I added a small red onion and one can of fat free refried beans to the beef mixture. It makes six large enchiladas using medium sized tortillas. Tasty! Always a family favorite.

Fantastic Enchilada (with some small changes!) Use corn tortillas instead of flour, add half an onion into the ground beef, season ground beef with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, chili, and red pepper flakes, and use pepper jack cheese instead of cheddar! Also, add salt salt and more salt!Also cooked for 18 minutes instead of 20. Was INCREDIBLE! Made some quick refried beans as a side and it went really well with the spicy enchilada.

The enchiladas came out so cheesy and so meaty instead of regular flour tortilla I used wheat tortilla and it came out wonderful wonderful.

Only had burrito tortillas so they are a bit larger than normal, but still super tasty

Added a can of refried beans to the meat in the pan and melted the cheese into the filling before scooping into tortillas. More filling and super tasty!

Flavor could have been a little Spicer. I used diced onion and cumin in the beef when browning. Flavor was great we just like a little more "kick"

Samantha· 2 years ago

I seasoned the beef with cumin, salt, pepper and onion powder. I only add half the can of diced green chilies (picky eater).

Lanny K· 2 years ago

Followed the recipe exactly except I accidentally bought 1 can of sauce! I only added a quarter cup on the bottom and mixed with the ground beef and chili's, and the rest on top. Still tasted great. I used a bit more cheese than was suggested on top. Cooked for 20 minutes. Topped with sour cream, leftuce, and tomato afterward. Would recommend! Makes leftovers! We are a family of 2 and can't wait to bring some for lunch tomorrow.
