Beef and Bean Enchiladas

Recipe Source: deliciousdecisions.org

Ingredients:

1/2 cup no-salt-added tomato sauce
1/2 cup salsa
8 6-inch corn tortillas
1/2 pound lean ground beef
1 cup canned nonfat refried beans
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese

Directions:

In a small bowl, stir together tomato sauce and salsa. Using about half the tomato sauce mixture, brush both sides of each tortilla. Stack tortillas on a plate and set aside. (This allows tortillas to soften.)

In a large skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat until brown, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place in a colander and rinse under hot water. Drain well. Wipe skillet with a paper towel. Return beef to skillet. Stir in refried beans, chili powder, cumin and pepper. Cook and stir for 2 minutes, or until heated through.

Preheat broiler.

Spoon about 1/4 cup of the mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up tortillas and place, seam side down, in a 10x6x2-inch or 9x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Top with remaining tomato sauce mixture.

Broil 4 inches from the heat for 5 minutes, or until browned. Sprinkle with cheese. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Serves 4; 2 enchiladas per serving

Directions:

Cook your rice. Brown your meat in a large skillet. Add taco seasoning, soup and finished rice, mix well. Add a bit of water if sauce is too thick.

Recommended side: Spanish Rice or Mexican Dips

Author’s Note:

You could use the flour tortillas to make it more like real enchiladas but its so quick and easy and not really time consuming. Most cooks have the ingredients on hand – so enjoy!

Nicki’s Note:

I omitted the mushrooms and used cream of chicken soup (instead of mushroom) and used flour tortillas, and it turned out wonderful! Highly recommended with a good spicy rice or similar side dish. πŸ™‚
