Ingredients

  • 1 lb (454 g) Ground Beef
  • 30 oz (850 g) Red Enchilada Sauce
  • 2 1/2 cups (300 g) Cheddar Cheese
  • 2 1/2 cups (300 g) Colby Jack Cheese
  • 3 oz (85 g) Sliced Black Olives, Drained
  • 1 White Onion, Chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Diced
  • 8 Flour Tortillas, Thin, Fajita Sized
  • 2 Green Onions, Sliced
  • Cream
  • 1 Avocado, Diced
  • Hot Sauce
  • Cilantro


Instructions

  1. Gather all your ingredients. Grate the cheese (avoid using pre-grated varieties), slice olives if necessary, chop the onions, and mince the garlic.
  2. Preheat your oven to 400℉. Lightly coat a large casserole dish with vegetable oil for the enchiladas.
  3. In a sizable skillet, brown the beef, white onion, and garlic on medium heat until fully cooked.
  4. Wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil and warm them in the oven for 10 minutes.
  5. Mix the cooked beef and onion mixture in a bowl with half the enchilada sauce, some olives (reserve some for topping), and half of each type of cheese.
  6. Take the heated tortillas out of the oven, and distribute the beef mixture evenly among them, about ½ cup per tortilla.
  7. Roll each tortilla up and lay them seam side down in the oiled baking dish.
  8. Drizzle the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, cover with foil, and bake for 30 minutes.
  9. Remove the dish from the oven, take off the foil, sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top, and add the leftover sliced black olives.
  10. Bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted.
  11. Scatter the sliced green onions over the enchiladas.
  12. Let them sit uncovered for 10 minutes before serving.
  13. Top with any favorites: a dollop of sour cream, diced avocado, hot sauce, cilantro, etc.
