Delicious and comforting cheese enchiladas, ready in just 30 minutes, perfect for any family meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 pieces corn tortillas (Can substitute with flour tortillas.)
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (Blend of cheddar and Monterey Jack is recommended.)
  • 1 cup enchilada sauce (Store-bought or homemade.)
  • 1/2 cup sour yogurt (For a creamy topping.)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (For garnish.)
  • 1 small onion (Finely chopped, optional.)
  • 1 medium bell pepper (Diced, optional.)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (For sautéing.)

Instructions

  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and diced bell pepper, if using. Sauté until they are tender and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. On a separate pan, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side.
  4. Take each tortilla and layer about two tablespoons of the sautéed mixture and a generous amount of shredded cheese in the middle. Roll it up tightly and place seam-side down in a baking dish.
  5. Pour the enchilada sauce generously over the rolled tortillas, then sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Once baked to perfection, let them cool for a minute before serving. Top with sour yogurt and fresh cilantro.

Notes

Feel free to customize with your favorite proteins or veggies. Great with sides like Mexican rice or a fresh avocado salad.
