Tip

Chopped Onion Substitute

When there’s no time to chop onions, onion powder is one option. Substitute 1 tablespoon of onion powder for one medium chopped onion. For the best onion flavor, use frozen chopped onions or dried minced onion (found in the spice aisle). One tablespoon of dried minced onion equals 1/4 cup minced raw onion.

First time I made this it was way too bland. The second time I added a packet of taco seasoning, increased the minced onion & chili powder to 1T, 1/3 c taco sauce, & 1/4 t red pepper flakes.

I added more onions to the meat mixture, as well as a few chopped jalapenos. I also put some salsa on top after it was done cooking. Husband and I both loved it! Def a keeper.

Call them burritos or enchiladas, they're very good! Made half the recipe (plus 4.5 oz. can chopped green chilis) and baked for twenty minutes as suggested. topped with sour cream and chopped green onions. Wonderful!

Wouldn't this actually be considered a burrito? Like a Beef and Bean Burrito with 'enchilada sauce'?

This is a great recipe! I substituted one can of black beans for one can of refried beans. I also added one minced onion to the beef as I was browing it. Next time I will place the enchiladas in a baking dish and pour a large can of enchilada sauce and sharp cheese over all and bake for 20-30 minutes.

Oh man! These things are the Bomb! I added 4 minced jalepenos to the beans.

Very Good. Used 1 can refried beans, added 1- 4.5oz chopped green chilis and monterey jack cheese.

I made this recipe with 98% fat-free ground turkey, fat-free refried beans and 2% Cheddar cheese. The enchiladas were moist and tasty. I would certainly make it again.
