With a toddler in the house, I look for foods that are a snap to make. Loaded with beef, cheese and a flavorful rice mix, these enchiladas come together with out any fuss. But they're so good that guests think I spent hours in the kitchen. -Jennifer Smith Colona, Illinois

Made a half recipe, used La Preferida mild red chile enchilada sauce and served on a bed of shredded iceberg lettuce and chopped tomatoes. Delicious!

I made these last night and they were absolutely delicious. I did use the Mexican Rice a Roni instead of the Spanish Rice one because we prefer it, and could not have been happier. Served it up with sour cream, black olive slices and fresh chopped tomato. I also mixed a can of mild with a can of hot enchilada sauce for a bit of heat. I will definitely be making these again.

I took the leftovers of this to work and shared with a co-worker who came over and hugged me after trying them. Now I make extras just to take in for him. Great dish, quick and easy

I loved this, so simple yet delicious! I also added in chopped onions and green peppers into my meat when cooking it. Really hit the spot!

We love this recipe, but I do add a can of black beans to the meat/rice mixture for a better consistency and it makes it more filling. I can make 2 9x13 pans out of this recipe that way too. (adding more enchilada sauce of course)
