Easy Cheese Enchiladas
Intimidated by making your own Mexican food? These easy enchiladas only involve TWO ingredients! plus you can customize it if you'd like.
Ingredients
- corn tortillas
- cheese sticks cut in half length-wise
- cheese (cheddar; or a blend) grated
- onions, diced OPTIONAL
- red or green chile sauce OPTIONAL
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ยบ, and get out whatever baking dish you want to use.
- Take each individual corn tortilla and run it under tap water; just to get each side wet. Put, now wet, tortillas on a plate or mat.
- Heat a griddle, large pan, or cast iron skillet on a stovetop on low heat.
- Place tortillas on warm griddle. Wait about 10 seconds, then flip for another 5-10 seconds. If they start to bubble, get them off the heat; you just want to warm them up and make them pliable. Set aside once warmed.
- When you're ready to build your enchiladas: take one tortilla and put the cheese stick on the bottom 1/4 of it, horizontally. Fold the bottom edge of tortilla over the cheese and roll it up.
- Carefully place each rolled enchilada in baking dish.
- Repeat with remaining enchiladas.
- Cover enchiladas with desired amount of shredded cheese. (Optional, sprinkle diced onion and/or smother with red chile sauce)
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
