These 5 Ingredient Beef Enchiladas are a quick and delicious meal featuring seasoned ground beef, chunky salsa, red enchilada sauce, and melty four-cheese Mexican blend wrapped in warm flour tortillas.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 cup chunky salsa
- 1 (10-ounce) can red enchilada sauce
- 1 (8-ounce) package Borden® Cheese Thick Cut Shredded Four Cheese Mexican (about 2 cups)
- 8 (8-inch) flour tortillas (or corn tortillas if preferred)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the lean ground beef until fully cooked. Drain excess fat, return to medium-low heat, and stir in the chunky salsa. Heat through and remove from heat.
- Pour half of the red enchilada sauce evenly over the bottom of the baking dish.
- Warm the tortillas as per package instructions. Spoon 1/4 cup of the beef mixture into each tortilla and add a heaping tablespoon of shredded cheese. Roll tightly and place seam side down in the baking dish. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Remove foil for the last 5 minutes if you prefer a browned cheese topping.
