SUPER EASY CHEESY ENCHILADAS



Super Easy Cheesy Enchiladas image

When you don't have a lot of time or money. I made this for my family for around a dollar per serving. If the only Mexican food your kids will touch is cheese quesadillas (cheese melted on a tortilla), give this a try as a "step up". My picky picky DD was okay with cheese enchiladas when we told her it was cheese in a tortilla with a sauce on top. Now she has been known to eat spinach enchiladas and chicken enchiladas! :) She gave this recipe two thumbs up. :)

Categories     Cheese

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups shredded cheese (whatever floats your boat, I used a preshredded Colby or Monterey Jack blend)
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 -2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 -2 teaspoon instant minced onion (or a smidge of grated fresh)
12 corn tortillas
15 ounces enchilada sauce
1/2 cup more shredded cheese

Steps:

  • First, you want to mix the first four ingredients together until they are really well combined. Seriously, you will not see any little shreds of cheese and it will have the texture of stiff play dough (this is important).
  • Preheat your oven to 350 and grab a pan. I used an 11x7 inch oval baking dish, but you can also use an 8inch square.
  • Pour about 1/4 of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of the pan and swirl the pan until the bottom is coated.
  • Reach in with your clean hands and grab about 2 tablespoons of cheese mixture in your hands and shape into a log. Roll a tortilla around this log and place in the pan. Repeat for the rest of the cheese and tortillas.
  • Pour the rest of the sauce on top, spreading it to cover.
  • Sprinkle the last 1/2 cup of cheese on top, and place in the oven. Bake 20-30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
  • For OAMC: Freeze before cooking, thaw in refrigerator and bake according to directions.

EASY CHEESE ENCHILADAS

Provided by Kathryn Donangelo

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 large flour tortillas or whole wheat
3 cups shredded cheese
8 ounces sour cream
1 can, 20 ounces Red enchilada sauce
1/4 cup yellow onions; diced
1/4 cup green onions; thinly sliced
toppings of your choice; guacamole, sour cream, diced tomatoes, onions

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, whisk together the red enchilada sauce and sour cream until combined, creamy and smooth.
  • Ladle in about 2 cups of the sour cream enchilada sauce so it covers the bottom of the dish.
  • Add 1/4 cup of shredded cheese in the middle of each tortilla. Add a pinch of diced onions and a pinch of sliced green onions. Roll the tortilla and place on the baking dish. Repeat until you have made 8 enchiladas.
  • Add the remaining enchilada sauce to the top making sure to get the corners. I like to use a spoon to ensure the top is evenly coated with sauce. Top with 1 cup of cheese and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until cheese is melted perfectly and bubbly. Garnish with more diced yellow onions and sliced green onions. Serve with guacamole, sour cream, chips and dip to make the perfect meal! Enjoy!

VELVEETA ENCHILADAS



Velveeta Enchiladas image

Of all things, a neighbor brought this dish to our home after my dad's memorial service in 1981. We loved it so much, I told her when we'd finished it that she could only get her dish back if she'd share the recipe! I've made it so often since then, I no longer need the recipe card she so kindly provided. This is my updated...

Categories     Tacos & Burritos

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb ground beef (or shredded beef, chicken, or pork)
1 can(s) diced ortega chilis (any size can, depends on how much you like them and how
1 pkg finely shredded cheese - mexican 4-cheese mix works great
1 can(s) cream of chicken or mushroom soup
1/2 - 1 can(s) milk (use soup can to measure)
1 or 2 onions, chopped
1 pkg small corn tortillas
1 pkg velveeta cheese - 6 oz
vegetable oil as needed

Steps:

  • 1. Chop onion as coarsely or finely as you like and set aside.
  • 2. Cut Velveeta into cubes and set aside.
  • 3. Dump the shredded cheese onto a plate and set aside.
  • 4. In a 10" skillet over high heat, "scatter" the ground beef and cook until well done. Drain completely; do not discard drippings. Return the liquid and fat to the skillet and keep, covered, on very low heat; be sure to watch it while you complete the sauce and assemble the enchiladas.
  • 5. In a heavy 2 qt saucepan over medium heat, pour the can of soup and milk to make a creamy consistency; don't make it too thin. Stir until well blended. Add diced Ortega chilis.
  • 6. Drop the Velveeta, a little at a time, into the warm soup mixture, stirring as constantly as possible so the cheese doesn't burn and the milk doesn't separate. Stir constantly until the cheese has completely melted and the mixture is very smooth and creamy. If it's too thick, add a little more milk.
  • 7. Remove from heat. Pour and spread about 1/3 of the mixture onto the bottom of a glass oblong pan with sides about 2-3" high. The pan should be around 10" to 12" long. Set the rest of the sauce aside, covered but off the heat.
  • 8. Assemble the enchiladas as follows, one at a time: 1. Heat the tortillas in the drippings until they are soft and "floppy." The liquid in the pan will be used up in this process; if it doesn't last through all 12 tortillas, add a little vegetable oil as needed. 2. On a plate, lay out the tortilla and quickly add a little of each of the ground beef, onions, and shredded cheese. 3. Roll the tortilla into a tube around the filling and lay, seam side down, in an oblong glass dish, squished a little close to the previous tortilla. 4. Repeat until you have 12 enchiladas in the dish. There should be beef, cheese, and onions left over when you're done to be used later.
  • 9. Uncover and stir the remaining sauce (reheat if necessary) and carefully pour it over enchiladas. Top with remaining ground beef, onions, and shredded cheese.
  • 10. Place the glass pan into a 350º oven for 30 minutes, or until sauce bubbles. Allow the top to brown if you like. You may also heat in the microwave at about 3/4 power for 15 to 30 minutes (depending on wattage), or until the sauce is bubbly.

EASY CHEESY VELVEETA ENCHILADAS



Easy Cheesy Velveeta Enchiladas image

I love enchiladas, but making them with shredded cheese is so messy I avoided them. Then I realized a Mexican restaurant I loved made their enchiladas from a cheese that tasted like Velveeta. I was inspired. My family loves these and I have to make a LOT when I make them. If you don't like Velveeta, you probably won't like them, though. Not everyone will like my method of softening the tortillas, either, but use your own method if you don't. This makes a lot of sauce to use on top, you may not choose to use it all.

Categories     Cheese

Time 40m

Yield 16 enchiladas, 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

16 corn tortillas
1 lb Velveeta reduced fat cheese product or 1 lb Velveeta Mexican cheese
1 (15 ounce) can chili without beans
1 cup campbells southwest nacho cheese soup
1 medium white onion

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Spray a baking dish with cooking spray fairly heavily.
  • Chop the onion, can be however you like it from minced to rough chopped.
  • Cut the Velveeta into one ounce portions.
  • Soften the tortillas. I use a no-fat method by freezing my tortillas. When I take them from the freezer, I place the frozen package in the microwave and the water in the package steams the tortillas. You can soften them however you want,normally be heating the tortila with chicken broth, or vegetable oil until soft.
  • Take one portion of the velveeta, a small amount of chopped onion, place on the tortillas and roll.
  • Place the tortillas, seam side down, in the baking dish.
  • Mix the can of chile and the can of soup together and pour over the enchiladas.
  • Bake 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the topping is bubbly.
  • Let cool a few minutes before serving.
