What You Will Need:
- 1 1/2 pounds of ground beef
- 8 flour tortillas
- 1-14.5 oz can of fire roasted tomatoes
- 2 cups of grated cheese of your choice
- 1 cup chopped pickles
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 1/2 cup sliced banana peppers
- 1/2 cup of ketchup
- 1/4 cup of mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup of mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon black peppers
- 1/2 sea salt
Ground beef, cheese, tomatoes, or whatever you like!
Brown the ground beef in a medium skillet with the salt and pepper. Once browned, drain off the grease. Next, add the drained tomatoes and shredded cheese and combine well. The mixture needs to be warm enough for the cheese to start to melt. You can use whatever cheese you like. Cheddar, mozzarella, havarti, swiss, the list goes on!
Rolling and baking the cheeseburger enchiladas
Place about 1/2 cup, or more, of the filling into a tortilla and roll them up. Place the rolled up tortillas, seam side down, into a greased 9 x 13 pan. Spray just a bit of oil on top of the tortillas before baking. Bake at 350 degrees F or until cheese has melted to your liking.
Toppings and “sauces”
In the picture above the mustard and ketchup are put on separately. After we had that I thought it would be great to mix equal parts ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise. The mix made a nice “sauce” for the enchiladas. Another great sauce to try is my everything sauce! We also put on banana peppers, diced pickles, diced onions, all the things you like on a hamburger…or cheeseburger!
The cheeseburger enchiladas are great the next day for lunch or dinner. We have eaten my enchiladas cold or hot. Other ideas I have yet to try is a cheese sauce on top. Cheeseburger enchiladas! Use your imagination and make it your own! This recipe would go great with the strawberry almond salad. The contrast of sweet and savory is delicious!
