Description
Delicious enchiritos filled with ground beef, refried beans, and cheese, topped with sour cream and olives.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Ground beef (preferably Halal certified)
- 1 can (15 oz) Refried beans
- 6–8 tortillas (10-inch) Flour tortillas
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 can (10 oz) Enchilada sauce
- 1 small Onion, diced
- 1 small can Black olives, sliced
- to taste Sour cream (For topping)
- to taste Lettuce, shredded (For topping)
Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, add ground beef. Sauté until browned thoroughly, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Stir in the diced onion and cook until it’s softened, around 2-3 minutes. Add refried beans and half a cup of enchilada sauce. Mix well until heated through.
- Heat flour tortillas either in the microwave or on a skillet. Lay each tortilla flat, add a few spoonfuls of the beef and bean mixture in the center, and sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and carefully roll it up to contain the filling. Place the enchirito seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
- Once all the enchiritos are in the dish, pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top and sprinkle with any leftover cheese.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Top with sour cream, sliced black olives, and shredded lettuce. Enjoy!
Notes
- To make this dish vegetarian, substitute the ground beef with a combination of sautéed vegetables or meat alternatives.
- Consider using other types of cheese for variation.
