Cheesy Beef Enchiladas are the perfect choice for dinner!
Do you love Beef Enchiladas as much as we do? They are loved by all in our household or most, my son is on the fence. Of course, he loves them one day and hates them the next, so is the life of a picky eater.
Regardless, I love how easy they are and I pretty much go shopping in my pantry to make them. I use white corn tortillas for ours to keep them gluten free, the one thing to remember with corn tortillas is to heat up the tortillas for about 20-30 seconds in the microwave before using them to make them pliable.
For these Enchiladas I used Rotel, Enchilada Sauce, Black Beans, and Chilies all canned goods that I keep regularly stocked in our pantry. I always have canned goods on hand because they last so long! I can easily stock up when they go on sale, then when I make my menu for the week it makes my life easier to shop from my pantry.
Now are you ready to start making a pan of these enchiladas with canned goods? Remember you can use frozen too or even fresh
After I stuffed and rolled the enchiladas, I topped them with the canned sauce and chilies, then piled on the cheese and sliced green onions. If you want to give yours even more of a kick, then use a spicy enchilada sauce. I went with mild since I am not a fan of spicy foods.
Time for a bite!
Remember if you aren’t gluten-free, you can always use flour tortillas too if you prefer.
Enjoy!

This is a good recipe except for I omitted the green chilies because Rotel comes with some in them. Also, there was no instruction to cover with aluminum foil and I believe you need to because they came out a bit dry. Maybe last 5 minutes remove it. Corn tortillas tear so very easily even warmed up. I couldn’t roll them tight I had to gently fold them over. I’ll stick with flour tortillas I think. More easily pliable. Only made 12 with corn. Probably because I wasn’t able to tighten them up as much as I would have liked.
I use corn because they are gluten free but flour is much more pliable. I think I have rolled corn tortillas so much I’m used to them now but I do agree flour does roll better.
