BEEF & CHEESE ENCHILADAS



Beef & Cheese Enchiladas image

My son needed an enchilada recipe for his Food Science class. He wanted my recipe, but I don't use a recipe per se'. I have guestimated here and I think it should be pretty close to what I make. My enchiladas are comfort food. We have these for New Years because we are usually tired of turkey and ham by then. These can be made all beef or all cheese.

Much as we like meat, enchiladas can't make it on beef alone. That's why we stuffed these with zucchini and onions, cream cheese and key spices.
