Time 40m

Yield 12-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 lb ground beef
1 (15 ounce) can black beans or 1 (15 ounce) can texas ranch style beans
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 cup finely diced fresh poblano peppers or 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
1/2 cup finely diced white onions or 1/2 cup yellow onion
2 cloves crushed garlic
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese or 1 cup monterey jack cheese
salt and pepper
12 -15 8-inch whole wheat flour tortillas or 12 -15 8-inch corn tortillas
2 1/4 cups hot water
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
2 tablespoons margarine or 2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
5 teaspoons red chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
2 teaspoons garlic powder
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Combine in large skillet ground beef, onion, garlic, salt and pepper.
  • Cook until beef is browned.
  • Drain grease.
  • Return to skillet and add tomatoes, peppers or canned chilies, and beans (I prefer the Texas beans and fresh pablano pepper here because of the added flavor).
  • Reduce heat, cover and simmer while preparing the sauce, stirring frequently.
  • Prepare the sauce by mixing all ingredients in medium bowl with a wire whisk until butter has melted.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add about 1/2 cup sauce to meat mixture.
  • Turn off heat.
  • Dip each tortilla (the whole wheat are absolutely delicious in this recipe) into the enchilada sauce coating thoroughly.
  • Lay the soaked tortilla in your baking pan and add one serving spoon of the meat mixture lengthwise along one end of tortilla then roll it up from there (Note that there should be about 2 serving spoons of meat left when you are done with filling all tortillas).
  • When done rolling each one make sure to place it so that open end of tortilla is on the bottom to avoid spillage.
  • Repeat with all tortillas.
  • Add remaining meat mixture and remaining sauce evenly on top of enchiladas.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, remove foil, cover with grated cheese and return to oven for 5 minutes uncovered, or until all cheese has melted.
  • For easiest serving, slice enchiladas in half lengthwise down the pan.
  • Serve with rice, sour cream, guacamole, and your favorite corn chips.

These enchiladas were a bit too bland for me. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used black beans instead of ground beef. The enchiladas were still delicious!

The enchiladas were good, but they were a bit dry. I think next time I'll add some more sauce.
