enchilada casserole

 

I love enchiladas. I don’t like to make enchiladas. They are kinda tedious, and a little messy. But this enchilada casserole? Holy guacamole! It is every bit as yummy as a hand rolled enchilada, and so much easier to make.

Lean in really close……..it will only take you 40 minutes from start to finish. Seriously.

Enchilada Casserole in a Hurry!

For Feingold Stage 2 Friendly, use approved beef broth, taco seasoning, and cheese!

Gather

1 pound ground sirloin
1 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 1/2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup fat-free, lower sodium beef broth
1 tablespoon lower sodium taco seasoning
1 (8-ounce) can no-salt-added tomato sauce
4 (8-inch) whole-wheat flour tortillas
1/3 cup (1 1/2 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Step by Step

  1. Heat large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef and onion to pan; cook 6 minutes, stirring to crumble.
  2. Preheat oven to 400˚.
  3. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute. Sprinkle with flour; cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add broth, taco seasoning, and tomato sauce to pan. Bring to a boil; cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add 1 1/2 cups tomato mixture to beef mixture; reserve 1/2 cup tomato mixture.
  4. Place 1 tortilla in a 9-inch pie plate. Top with 1 cup of beef mixture. Repeat layers, ending with tortilla. Spread reserved tomato mixture over tortilla and top with cheese. Bake at 400˚ for 10 minutes or until cheese melts. Cool slightly. Cut into 4 wedges.

Simple sub: Use ground turkey instead of beef. You could even use a shredded rotisserie chicken.

Another idea: Add in a can of black beans and some frozen corn to the meat mixture to bulk up this already fantastic casserole. You could also add in a small can of drained green chiles. The possibilities for customization are endless.
