 Thought I would share another all time family favorite my partners sister comes over, and ask what are you cooking oh not much just some enchilada's. I, laughed and I said  "yes they are easy to make and you can have a few she did ask me to share " will you please share how you make these so I thought I would share the simplicity. Depending on what type of meat a person decides to use you cook this first. My choice inexpensive chuck steak cooked in a skillet seasoned a little for flavoring. Ingredients that you will need, rice cooked, a small can of jalapenos, optional, the Mexican style can diced tomatoes the red or green can of enchilada sauce I use the large can I make extra and freeze them. A can of either vegetarian style, or salsa style re fried beans, the small corn flour tortillas, and lots of grated Mexican cheese. I use the stock pot mix a little out the can of  enchilada sauce into the pot, then I take the jalapenos add them I do not like to use the really hot ones. Put the can of tomatoes in the pot as well as the re fried beans, I cook up some rice and add this once it is cooked a little secret to rice rinse it off before bringing it to a boil it adds moisture. I diced the steak and add it as well. Then cook the tortillas in a little 0live oil in a non-stick pan turn them so both sides are soft. Take the the cooked enchilada filling and place it into each cooked shell once they have cooled add some cheese roll it. I prefer a cast iron skillet for this also though you can use a glass baking dish arrange place cheese and enchilada sauce over the top and bake for until cheese has melted most everything is already cooked before hand. I slice a lime and put fresh salsa with a little sour cream off to the side the seasoning is just chili powder salt and pepper or you can buy it in a packet form the seasoning isle. I wrap the extra in plastic and tin foil once cooled and store them in the freezer they do not stay there long though.
