I do something similar, but I crockpot the meat overnight to cut the prep time. YMMV.

How about using a pressure cooker for the beef to speed the process up?

mmm those look yummy. I make them the cheap quick way, but I'm not too fond of them to make them, if I did it this way I might make them more often lol

Nice. I will try it that way one of these days. I just us chili powder instead of the red peepers and ground beef instead of the roast. It cooks faster. You'll be done in now time.

mmmm... ground beef taste awful and doesn't have the juicy taste of the beef like she's using. I don't really like any type of enchilada but this meal should be about taste not how fast you can prepare it. Otherwise you can just buy frozen tacos, dip them in sauce, add some cheese and in five minutes you have your enchiladas.

I guess it's a regional thing, because here in South Texas we use ground beef and it does not taste awful for most people here. and no it's not the same as frozen food. Anyway, if you don't like enchiladas you really shouldn't be commenting on this post and ridicule someone else's input. I mean how did you even come to this post if you don't even like them?

i dont know about ground beef! if anything honestly i would use pork :-)

[oncex]

Try chicken (with cooked potatoes and carrots), is much healthier and is more traditional than pork or beef.

[topazeyes]

I've never eaten pork enchiladas

[!Andrew_Modder!]

oh r u missing out!

PLEASE do not use flour tortillas the taste is not as good as if you buy smaller corn tortillas. You can make your enchiladas any way you want but you never use flour tortillas. I know is an american thing big is good but in this case smaller corn tortillas have better taste. Corn tortillas are in different sizes and you probably will find the 6 inch diameter tortilla more useful for enchiladas. I see that you have the method right and you might want to show a picture of the peppers because those are easy to get mixed up with other types. I used to find those peppers in the Asian section in some store in Poland, so maybe here in the US you can also find them there if you don't find them in other sections of the store. If you can't find the cheese like the one on the picture, you can use mozzarella cheese (don't use Monterey jack) and then add some feta cheese once it comes out of the oven. But I'm sure that cheese on the picture has a lot of taste.... nice taste :)

i love making homemade food with my dad, especially tacos, enchiladas, fajitas, curry, london broil, Mongolian beef, soup, stew, ribs, and cube steak guacamole hamburgers...really good nice stuff

Great job! One question: Where would I get the cheese? We have a fiesta foods in our city, could I get it there?

[mollypierucci]

most grocery stores have a spanish section, you could probably get it at any latin market, or just use your favorite melting cheese- any white cheese is good.
