2 cans Cherry Fruit Pie Filling (or any flavor you like)
10-12 medium size flour tortillas
2 1/2 C sugar
1 C Butter/Margarine
1 1/2 C Water
1/2 C Chopped Pecans
1 Tablespoon Cinnamin

Tips:

  • Use fresh cherries: Fresh cherries provide the best flavor and texture for this dish, but you can also use frozen cherries if fresh cherries are not available. If using frozen cherries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Pit the cherries: Before using the cherries, be sure to pit them. You can use a cherry pitter or a knife to remove the pits.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: The combination of cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese provides a delicious and gooey filling for these enchiladas. You can also use other types of cheese, such as pepper Jack cheese or queso Oaxaca.
  • Don't overfill the tortillas: When filling the tortillas, be sure not to overfill them. Too much filling will make the enchiladas difficult to roll and will also make them more likely to fall apart.
  • Bake the enchiladas until they are golden brown: Bake the enchiladas until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will ensure that the enchiladas are cooked through and that the cheese is gooey and delicious.
