Beef and cheese enchiladas are a classic Mexican dish that are perfect for a family dinner or a festive gathering. Here's how you can make delicious beef and cheese enchiladas at home:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, cook 1 pound (450 g) of ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain the fat.
  3. Add 1 diced onion, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of chili powder to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is soft.
  4. Add 1 can (14 ounces/398 mL) of tomato sauce and 1 can (4 ounces/113 g) of diced green chilies to the skillet. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  5. Place 1/4 cup (60 mL) of the beef mixture onto each tortilla. Roll up the tortilla and place it seam-side down in a baking dish.
  6. Top the enchiladas with 1 can (10 ounces/284 mL) of enchilada sauce and 1 cup (100 g) of shredded cheese.
  7. Bake the enchiladas for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

These beef and cheese enchiladas are best served hot and fresh from the oven. You can garnish them with chopped cilantro, diced tomatoes, and sour cream if you like. Enjoy!
