How to Make Cheese Enchiladas
- mix v8, enchilada sauce and Hormel chili in medium sauce pan. Bring just to a boil, stir, cover and remove from heat.
- chop onions and set aside. Put cheese in a bowl and set aside.
- lightly fry tortillas in hot frying pan with a small amount of oil, turning once. Tortillas will puff up when ready to turn. Usually about 5-10 seconds. Then about 5 seconds and remove to drain on paper towels. Fry all tortillas.
- Take a fried tortilla, add 1/4-1/2 cup cheese and a tsp. onions down middle of each tortilla and roll tortilla. Place each tortilla, side by side, in a 9x13 inch pan. It will hold 12 enchiladas.
- Stir enchilada sauce you made earlier and pour over rolled enchiladas. Top with remaining cheese and onions. Put in pre-heated 350 degree oven for 15 minutes or until bubbly. Serve with shredded lettuce on the side or on top of enchiladas
- You may have some extra sauce left over. It freezes well.
