Great as made. I took some other reviewer's advice regarding lacking some zip so I added one packet of hot taco seasoning to the meat along with one chopped onion. For ZWT 2009.

    Yummy enchiladas. They were so easy to put together (and cheap too). We like a little spice though so before I rolled them up I put a heavy dose of Chalula on the meat mixture. These were great. Thanks so much for posting!

    I just realized I forgot to review this. Made this for dinner last week and it was a huge hit. I used the larger tortillas because that is what I had on hand. That made 5 large enchiladas. They were quick and very simple to make and tasted fantastic. Thanks so much for the great recipe!

    This is a great basic "starter" enchilada dish! I think you could add just about what ever your heart desires to this to make it your own. This time I added some chopped onion. Next time there will be some chopped jalapeno's and I'm going to use HOT enchilada sauce to spice it up even more. I did add some salt and pepper during step 3. Topped it off with some shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sour cream and chopped cilantro. Yummy. Thanks for posting.
