Enchiladas Suizas

Remember Chile Verde from a few weeks ago? Well if you have heaps left over, you can use it to make Enchiladas Suizas! These enchiladas came from the Swiss immigrants who moved to Mexico and established dairies.  

I had never heard of these enchiladas until I started working at a Mexican Restaurant in town. I had to know what items were on the menu so I could recommend things to customers, so I tried these and liked them (without the sour cream though... I'm not a fan).

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Baking Time: 10 minutes

*Everything I used was already cooked, so all I had to do was pop it in the oven to melt the cheese and warm the tortillas.

 

Ingredients:

Corn Tortillas

Chile Verde

Mozzarella Cheese

Sour Cream

Instructions:

Grease your pan.

Put Chile Verde in the tortilla and roll it up. 

Once the pan is full, pour a little green salsa on top and sprinkle cheese over them. Bake in oven for 10-15 minutes.

Mine don't look very pretty because I didn't warm my
tortillas before rolling them up... but they still tasted
great!

Serve the enchiladas on a plate and put a dollop of sour cream on top.

There you have it. Enchiladas Suizas. Enjoy :)

Enchilada Casserole

While I was growing up, it seemed like we were always having people over to eat with us. One time I remember my dad didn't want to roll up all the enchilada's so he decided to make it into a casserole instead, so that is how this meal came about. And trust me... it's fast and delicious!

I had some ground beef left over from making lasagna and decided to whip this together. In the ingredient section I listed what I used, but you can totally use whatever you want and it will be great!

Preparation time: 15 minutes*

Bake time: 40 minutes**

* I just had to take things out of the fridge, if you were starting from scratch it would probably take you longer.

** Since all my things were cold, I baked it longer. If all your ingredients were already warm, I would just put it in oven for 10-15 minutes.

Ingredients:

Ground Beef (minced beef)

Corn Tortillas

Enchilada Sauce*

Cheese

Olives

*If you don't have enchilada sauce, try using tomato soup and put your own spices in it. That is what I would do when we lived in Australia.

Instructions:

Put a little sauce in a pan

Layer with tortillas, ground beef, enchilada sauce, cheese and olives (3 or 4 layers).

Top with tortillas, sauce, and cheese. I stuck on some extra olives just for fun :)

Pop it in the oven at 350*F (180*C).

Enjoy :)

Super simple right? My husband and I are going to try chicken, with black beans, corn, and tomatoes next time. Let me know if you try any other creative ingredients that are tasty!
