Garlic Beef Enchiladas

Enchiladas with a unique garlic flair, unlike any other enchilada I have ever tasted. The house smells WONDERFUL when these are baking. Although they do take some time to prepare, the work is definitely worth the reward! The ingredients are mostly things that you probably already have stocked in the cupboard. (Cook time includes stovetop and baking times)

    If I tried to make these again, I'd add more chili powder and cumin, as these flavors get lost in the beef, tomato and cheese flavor. It tasted more like an Italian dish than Mexican.

    I was going to give this recipe 4 stars. DH liked them, DS's liked them and I thought they were okay. The problem I had was that I don't like the taste of chili powder and found it to be overpowering in this recipe. Then I had the leftovers the next day. WHOA!!! 5 stars all the way!!! If you let the sauce sit overnight and the flavors blend it becomes AMAZING!! The chili powder calms down and the cumin comes out, making these the best enchiladas I've ever had. Another plus is the detailed instructions and the fact that I had every ingredient in my pantry. I will most definitely be making these again but from now on, I will make the sauce a day ahead of time to let the flavors blend, then re-heat it when I assemble the enchiladas. Thanks for the great recipe!!!

    These enchiladas were wonderful! I was not sure how the sauce would turn out but it was so creamy and the flavour was amazing, I used 6 garlic cloves. It didn't take me that long to make them, and it was very easy, I would suggest you try these, they are delicious.
