Notes

  • Make sure to drain off any excess grease after cooking the beef.
  • Cut the cream cheese into cubes to help it melt faster.
  • If you decide to use corn tortillas, warm them up in a skillet before rolling. It help to make them more pliable and easier to roll.
  • Don't forget to place the enchiladas seam side down so they don't unroll.
