Cheesy Beef and Bean Enchiladas

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Course: Dinner
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Cheesy Beef and Bean Enchiladas
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 2 lb ground beef
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 1 tsp salt and pepper
  • 4 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp each of cumin and dried cilantro
  • 2 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 can refried beans
  • 30 white corn tortillas
  • Oil for frying
  • 2 (10 oz) cans enchilada sauce
  • Chihuahua cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 lbs of ground beef, a chopped onion, and season with salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, and dried cilantro. Once the beef is browned drain any extra grease and add 1 tbsp minced garlic. Next, stir in refried beans until incorporated.
  • In a separate skillet heat enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan over medium-high heat. Fry tortillas for about 5 seconds on each side until they start to bubble and place on a paper towel to drain.
  • Pour two cans of enchilada sauce into a shallow bowl, dip cooked tortillas into the sauce, add ground beef filling to the center, roll them up, and place into a greased baking dish or large sheet pan.
  • Pour any remaining sauce over the top of your enchiladas, top with Chihuahua cheese and bake at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes to melt the cheese. Enjoy!

Notes

This recipe makes 25-30 enchiladas depending on how full you stuff them. The enchiladas reheat well for leftovers the next night!
