Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground beef or turkey
  • 1 sm. onion, chopped
  • 6 burrito-size flour tortillas
  • 1-15 oz. can stewed tomatoes
  • 1-6 oz. can tomato paste
  • 1 pkg. enchilada sauce
  • Spices and seasonings mix
  • 2 c. water
  • 10 oz. pkg. Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 10 oz. pkg. Monterey Jack cheese, shredded

Preparation

Step 1

Brown meat with onion, drain and set aside. In a saucepan, combine enchilada mix, 2 cups water, tomato paste and tomatoes; blend well. Add meat mixture, bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Spread a little sauce on bottom of a 9x12x2-inch pan. Place 2 shells side-by-side, tearing any overlap to fit corners. Spoon sauce over shells, then cheeses. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Poke holes with a fork for steam to escape. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes covered; then uncover and bake 10 minutes longer. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes. Cut into squares. May serve with sour cream or guacamole. Can be frozen. Makes 6 servings.
