Santa Fe Enchiladas
"These flavorful enchiladas are my sister's favorite - she requests them whenever we get together," writes Lisa Zamora of Beloit, Wisconsin. This meaty main dish is cooked in the microwave, so it's done in a jiffy.

Reviews
I just made this recipe again tonight and noticed that there was a mistake in my review of March 1, 2019. It should read( use only 1 6oz. can of tomato paste.) Do not use tomato sauce.
Yummy, I'm waiting to see how it works as leftovers. I used cheese dip instead of the process cheese. I'm planning on trying the suggestions from cballew5 below.
Santa Fe enchiladas have neither beef nor tomato paste. If you want a good enchilada recipe, make your own red sauce with ground, dried chiles, stock, flour, garlic, Mexican oregano, and a little fat. Maybe some onions. That's it. Enchiladas are served with cheese, no meat. Period. You make enchiladas with corn tortillas, ALWAYS.I'm sure this recipe is good but it should be called something else. Burrito casserole, maybe?
The flavor was just off. We could not put our finger on it.
This recipe was super easy, cheap and fast. My old enchilada recipe is going in the garbage...this one is a keeper !!!!
This is easy and yummy. I think it would be good with beans, too.
