Up until I made this recipe, Enchiladas were a special occasion food for my family. I almost always made chicken ones and they were really a lot of work. I had to cook the chicken before, make the filling and then roll all the enchiladas and once that happened, I still had to bake the whole thing. My family loves them, but I would make pans of them for holidays and birthdays and that was about it.
But I realized once when we were out to dinner at a little mom and pop Mexican food place that we go to in town that all my family orders are cheese enchiladas with beans and rice. (And They Love IT!) So I needed a quick dinner last week and I decided to make enchiladas. I had picked up a package of corn tortillas for a really great price and the rest is history.
I forgot however that I had used every single can of enchilada sauce in my house on Christmas day to make enchiladas and so I had to make my own.
It turned out So Great, that I had made it again and sworn to myself that never again will I buy a can of enchilada sauce. (it really is That good - and not hard to make at all). I will post the recipe for you on Friday. But for now, here are the easiest enchiladas in the world.
