- Use whatever cheese you like, just make sure it's a good melting cheese.
- For color and more flavor, garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
- You could add chopped onion to the enchilada filling.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave.
Here's how to make it:
- Cook the ground beef in a skillet until cooked through. Stir in the salsa. Remove from heat.
- Pour 1 can of the enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
- Divide the meat mixture between the tortillas and roll up. Place seam side down on top of the enchilada sauce.
- Pour the other can of enchilada sauce over the top. Sprinkle with cheese. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 30 minutes.
