GREEN CHILI ENCHILADAS
These are good beef enchiladas from The Once A Month Cookbook. I also substitute the beef with leftover chicken or turkey too. Nice to have some in the freezer for quick dinners.

Tips:
- Prep the onions and green chiles beforehand: To save time during assembly, dice the onions and green chiles in advance and store them in separate containers in the refrigerator. This way, they'll be ready to go when you're ready to make the enchiladas.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the tortillas: This will help prevent them from tearing when you're rolling them up.
- Don't overfill the tortillas: Too much filling will make them difficult to roll and may cause them to fall apart.
- Use a baking dish that's just large enough to fit the enchiladas in a single layer: This will help ensure that they cook evenly.
- Cover the enchiladas with foil before baking: This will help keep them moist and prevent the tortillas from drying out.
- Let the enchiladas rest for a few minutes before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the tortillas to firm up.
Conclusion:
This recipe for Onion-Green Chile Enchiladas is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for any occasion.
