Enchiladas

Method

Enchiladas

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté chopped onion until translucent. Add ground beef, cooking until browned. Season with salt and black pepper, then remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Assemble Cheese & Onion Enchilada

    In a baking dish, spread 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce on the bottom. Place a corn tortilla on a flat surface. Add a portion of shredded cheese and some sautéed onion. Roll the tortilla and place it seam-side down in the baking dish.

  3. 3

    Assemble Ground Beef Enchilada

    Using another corn tortilla, add a portion of the ground beef filling and roll it up. Place it next to the cheese enchilada in the baking dish.

  4. 4

    Assemble Chicken Enchilada

    Repeat the process with a corn tortilla filled with shredded chicken. Roll it up and place it in the baking dish.

  5. 5

    Top with Sauce

    Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Rice & Beans

  1. 7

    Cook the Rice

    In a saucepan, combine rice and chicken broth (or water). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

  2. 8

    Prepare the Beans

    In a separate saucepan, combine rinsed black beans and cumin. Heat over medium heat until warmed through. Optionally, stir in chopped cilantro.
