The from-scratch tortillas in this dish couldn't be simpler or easier to make. These enchiladas freeze well, too.—Diane Hansen, Prairie Farm, Wisconsin

Ingredients

TORTILLAS:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon salt
1-2/3 cups milk
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons butter, melted
FILLING:
1 pound ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed tomato soup, undiluted
1/2 cup taco sauce
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 can (2-1/4 ounces) sliced ripe olives, drained
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

Combine flour, cornmeal and salt in a bowl. Add milk, egg and butter. Beat until smooth. Place a lightly greased small skillet over medium heat. For each tortilla, pour about 3 tablespoons batter into skillet. Lift and tilt skillet to spread batter. Return to heat. Cook until light brown; turn and brown the other side. Remove to a warm platter; repeat with remaining batter. Set aside.
For filling, cook ground beef, onion and garlic until the meat is browned and onion is tender; drain. Stir in soups, taco sauce, oregano and olives.
Meanwhile, cover the bottom of a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish with six tortillas, overlapping as needed. Cover with half of meat mixture. Top with remaining tortillas and remaining meat mixture. Sprinkle with cheese.
Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until heated through. Let stand a few minutes before serving. Yield: 8 servings.
