Beef Enchiladas
GIMME SOME OVEN From Yummly
10 Ingredients 60 Minutes 490 Calories
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
- salt
- pepper
- 1 white onion (small, peeled and diced)
- 4 ounces diced green chiles
- 15 1/2 ounces black beans (or lentils, rinsed and drained)
- 8 large flour tortillas
- 3 cups shredded cheese (Mexican-blend)
- 1 batch red enchilada sauce (or 1 can store-bought enchilada sauce)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
DIRECTIONS:
Heat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
Cook the ground beef in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until it is browned and completely cooked through, using a spatula to break up the beef into small pieces as it cooks. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the beef to a separate bowl and set aside. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the remaining grease, and discard the rest.
Add the onion to saute pan and cook for 5 minutes (in the reserved 1 tablespoon of grease) until is is soft and translucent. Stir in the green chiles and beans, and cook for 1 minute to warm, stirring occasionally. Remove pan from heat, and stir the ground beef and 1/4 cup enchilada sauce into the onion mixture until combined. Set aside.
To assemble the enchiladas, set up an assembly line including: tortillas, enchilada sauce, ground beef mixture, and cheese. Lay out a tortilla, and spread two tablespoons of sauce over the surface of the tortilla. Portion about 1/8th of the ground beef mixture and spread it in a line down the center of the tortilla, then sprinkle with 1/3 cup cheese. Roll up tortilla and place in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Spread any of the remaining enchilada sauce on top of the tortillas, then sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.
Bake uncovered for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and serve immediately, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro if desired.

You can also cut your squash in half, and put it in a casserole dish in the microwave to cut down on time. Put the squash in the dish face down, and add about an inch of water to the dish. It will only take about 10-15mins depending on microwave strength. Love this recipe, can’t wait to try!
I have not included it in the past. I am just starting to add it to a recipes going forward. But since you asked, I did the analysis on this recipe and added it ;). Please let me know if that helps.
I just made this last night, added basil and grape tomatoes, also sealed the chicken in a pan just before the oven. It was incredible delicious I am so glad I run into your recipe! Thanks.
This is the best indoor chicken I’ve ever made, and I used boxed, frozen chicken breasts. Can’t wait to try this out with fresh ones… maybe post up some ideas for side dishes.
My store had a sale on boneless skinless tenders instead of breasts, so I think I will try this as more of a layered dish! Can hardly wait.
