EASY CROCK POT BEEF ENCHILADAS
This is an easy version of my easy oven baked beef enchiladas. There is probably a recipe like this, but I didn't use one and will make it often as it turned out well. It's also very easy. My hubby was hungry for this, but I wasn't going to be home, so I threw this together about 2 pm. He got home about 6 pm and said the smell was so good, he didn't take time to change clothes. I came in about 8 pm and even tho he had turned it off, it was warm and very good. Be sure not to over-cook as it will be dry and the tortillas tough on the edges. I think 4 hours would be the perfect amount of time. Serve with warm flour tortillas and butter or chips.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast or shoulder steak are great options for enchiladas because they become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly.
- Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really makes enchiladas special, so be sure to use a flavorful one. A simple tomato sauce or a more complex mole sauce are both great options.
- Don't overcook the beef: Overcooked beef will be tough and chewy. Cook it just until it is tender enough to shred easily.
- Use fresh tortillas: Fresh tortillas will give your enchiladas the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh tortillas, you can use store-bought tortillas, but be sure to heat them up before using them.
- Assemble the enchiladas carefully: Be sure to layer the tortillas, sauce, beef, and cheese evenly so that each bite is packed with flavor.
- Bake the enchiladas until they are golden brown and bubbly: This will ensure that the cheese is melted and the enchiladas are heated through.
Conclusion:
Crock Pot Beef Enchiladas are a delicious and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a weekend party.
