Ingredients:

1 pound lean ground beef (cooked diced or shredded beef(such as shredded beef or barbacoa)will work well in this recipe too.
1 cup chunky salsa
1 (10-ounce) can red enchilada sauce
8 (8-inch) tortillas (flour tortillas used on this recipe) but corn are the authentic traditional way.
1 (8-ounce) package Borden Cheese Thick Cut Shredded Four Cheese Mexican (about 2 cups)

Instructions:

-Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

-Tightly roll each tortilla up and place them in the dish, seam side down.
-Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over them and sprinkle the remaining cheese over.
-Tightly wrap the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 to 35 minutes.
For corn tortillas version
In the Microwave – Put five or fewer tortillas on a microwavable plate and cover them with a damp paper towel. Microwave in 30-second bursts until they are warmed through. Repeat in batches of five tortillas until all your tortillas are warm.
👇
In a small skillet over medium heat,
heat some vegetable oil. Dip each tortilla in the warm oil for 5 to 8 seconds until the tortilla is warmed through and pliable.
Do not crisp. This makes the tortillas pliable and won’t crack or fall apart..Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the tortillas have been used.
