Enchiladas are one of those go-to foods for me. If I'm feeling blue, or want something super filling and only have a little bit of meat, or leftovers, I make enchiladas. They're tasty, and very very filling. I don't make them like most people do, though...
Filling:
2 lb meat, cooked, your choice
2 c cooked rice (spiced how you like)
2 chipotle peppers in adobo, minced
1/2 c queso fresco, cubed
1/2 c cotija, cubed
6 medium or large flour tortillas
3 cups enchilada sauce (homemade or package, your choice)
1 c shredded colby jack cheese
1/2 c black olives, sliced
1/3 c chopped cilantro
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees f.
Mix meat, rice, peppers, and cheeses all together in a hot pan and mix until fully combined.
Divide into 6 equal parts, and ladle into the tortillas
Roll tortillas around the filling, and place into a baking dish
Ladle over the enchilada sauce (Yep - no dipping the tortillas)
Top with the shredded cheese and black olives
Bake for 20 minutes
Top with cilantro and serve
