Anasazi Enchiladas

Recipe #39681 | 30 min | 15 min prep | add private note

This dish is from Steamworks Brewing Co., Durango, Colorado. It's one of their most requested items on the menu. It was printed in the Rocky Mountain News, so I tried it and we thought it was really tasty. These enchiladas are named for the Anasazi ruins at Mesa Verde National Park, according to Chef Scotty Krick.

Made these last week for company. Although they had a good flavor, they seemed somewhat dry. I made them ahead of time and made my own red sauce, maybe I didn't have enough sauce on them. Anyway, I will rey again another time.

    I used the red enchilada sauce in a can. I also substituted Mexican blend cheese for the Monterey Jack cheese and used 1/3 less fat cream cheese and low fat sour cream and you couldn't tell the difference.. Will be making again soon as everyone here gave it 5+ stars. Excellent recipe Laudee!

    Laudee we had this last night and really enjoyed it. Had to substitute the pepperjack cheese for cheddar, the yellow onions for shallots because I can not buy the mentioned ingredients here. I first thought there was liquid missing as an ingredient, but whilst stirring the dish the ingredients produced enough. The only different thing I did was using more cumin.
