Time 1h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup white rice
1 ½ cups water
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning
1 cup water
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
1 cup cottage cheese
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
10 (8 inch) flour tortillas
1 (7.75 ounce) can red enchilada sauce
1 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Bring rice and 1 1/2 cup water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is almost tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 9x13-inch baking dishes.
  • Cook beef in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks, until crumbly and browned, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease and stir in onion and garlic until thoroughly combined. Stir taco seasoning and 1 cup water into the mixture, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low; simmer 5 minutes to thicken. Gently stir in rice. Cook, stirring often, until liquid is absorbed. Mix refried beans, cottage cheese, and 1 cup Cheddar cheese into the filling and stir until fully combined.
  • Spread about 1/2 cup of filling in a line down the center of each tortilla and roll tortillas; place 5 tortillas with seam sides down into bottom of each prepared baking dish.
  • Mix enchilada sauce with sour cream in a bowl and pour half the sauce down the center of each pan of enchiladas; sprinkle tops with 1 cup Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese topping is melted and the filling is hot, 20 to 25 minutes.

SUSAN'S FAVORITE BEEF ENCHILADA RICE



Susan's Favorite Beef Enchilada Rice image

This is a one-pan tasty and quick weeknight meal! It's something you can spice up any way you like yet is healthy and filling. It's one of my husband's favorite dishes to take to work for leftovers. It reheats really well. The recipe calls for sprinkling cheese on top at the end. I don't do this...and it's still great and filling. Got this recipe from my mom eons ago. This makes a very dry beefy rice...which my family prefers. If you like it more moist, you'll want to alter the rice/broth ratio to suit your tastes. Minced jalapeno's also make a tasty addition if you like some spice.

Tips:

  • To make the enchiladas ahead of time, assemble them as directed and then cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Bake as directed just before serving.
  • If you don't have any cooked rice, you can use instant rice. Just cook it according to the package directions and then let it cool slightly before using it in the recipe.
  • You can use any type of ground beef in this recipe, but I prefer to use a lean ground beef so that the enchiladas aren't too greasy.
  • If you don't have any enchilada sauce, you can make your own by simmering a can of tomato sauce with some chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder.
  • Be sure to shred the cheese finely so that it melts evenly throughout the enchiladas.
  • Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

Conclusion:

Beef and rice enchiladas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover rice and ground beef. With just a few simple ingredients, you can have a tasty and satisfying meal on the table in no time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner, give beef and rice enchiladas a try!
