  • This is a modern version of enchiladas, BEEF ENCHILADA CASSEROLE is a meal in itself, I serve it with the traditional refried beans and mexican rice or with a simple salad and avocado, and you can't forget the sour cream...the key ingredient for enchiladas is the rich flavor of the chili powder, paprika, and corn tortillas, and it's so much quicker in a no roll casserole. BEEF ENCHILADA CASSEROLE can be made the day before then refrigerated until ready to use and it will definitely be a hit in your home.
    ● CHECK CASSEROLE IN THE OVEN AFTER 25 MINUTES , IF BUBBLY, ITS READY OR LEAVE IT A LITTLE LONGER. (REMOVE FROM OVEN WHEN BUBBLY)
    MEAT INGREDIENTS
    1 LB. 80/20 ground beef (drained)
    1/2 tsp garlic powder
    1/2 tsp onion powder
    1 tsp pepper
    1 tsp salt
    2 TBSP canned green chilies
    ENCHILADA SAUCE
    3 Tbsp melted butter (unsalted butter) (you can add little bit more if needed)
    3 Tbsp All purpose flour
    2 1/2 Tbsp chili powder (I used Gebhardts)
    1 Tbsp paprika
    3 C. Chicken Broth (low sodium)
    2 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder
    1 tsp ground cumin
    2 tsp tomato paste
    1 tsp chicken bouillon (you can add more if you like)
    1 tsp oregano
    1/2 tsp sugar
    1/2 tsp pepper (you decide)
    TASTE AND ADJUST
    TORTILLAS
    3/4 C. vegetable oil
    12 corn tortillas (depending on your casserole size)
    ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS
    3 C. Colby Jack Cheese (freshly grated)
    Finely chopped onions (to your liking)
    Sour Cream (to your liking)
    DISCLAIMER
    DO NOT EAT OR SERVE THIS DISH TO ANYONE WHO IS OR MIGHT BE ALLERGIC TO ANY INGREDIENT IN THIS DISH.

    Today is my husband’s 75th birthday, and he requested “his girl, Rachel’s” enchiladas. We have made many of your recipes, and have loved every one of them. I only began cooking during the pandemic, and still am very much a novice. I really appreciate the care you take to explain each step. You’re an excellent teacher. Also-my husband and I say, “Just like that!” to each other constantly. We think you’re adorable! x

    Rachel, your cooking reminds me of a sweet neighbor I had in Arizona. She loved to cook, and to share her meals with loved ones.
    I was lucky enough to be able to buy the ingredients, she had fixed income, and she would do the cooking.
    As I had 2 jobs, I am retired RN, it was a wonderful trade. She would have a meal waiting for me on my "Friday", even if it was a Monday!
    So many happy memories of her cooking.
    And, because made with love, you also know her secret.
    Thank you for sharing. I am trying this soon.
    My neighbor has passed on, but her memories will always bring a smile.

    I was so excited about making your sauce for this. I took your sauce & let it sit for 2 days in the fridge, letting the flavors marry real well. I seared some chuck roast cubes then added your sauce to it, simmered 45 minutes on low stirring often. I use the street taco tortillas with extra sharp shredded cheddar. It was amazing !!!

Many do so they can remain exceptional or private with family secrets to cooking authentic dishes. I also like the no wrapping of the tortillas that is so messy and time consuming.

    Rachel! This Beef Enchilada Casserole is absolutely fabulous!! I made it for the first time today. It really was quite simple and has just the right blend of spices and ingredients. I used the Colby Jack cheese too. I served it with shredded lettuce and chopped Roma tomatoes. My husband had seconds! We are using leftovers as enchilada dip with unsalted tortilla chips. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

    Hi Rachel! I followed your direction to the T and this dish came out so DELICIOUS! My family flipped out!
    It's also very addictive!
    I have never made homemade red enchilada sauce and it came out so perfectly flavorful!
    The only variation was I used ground Turkey bc ground beef is hard on my stomach. I also used grated cabbage instead of lettuce to top it.
    Btw, you're a very good and thorough teacher. You make it easy to follow.
    Thank you, sweet sister, for all your fantastic recipes!
    God bless!🙏❤🙏

    Rachel, thank you so much to share a personal recipe with us. I was at the store today and I purchased items for my enchiladas, And after looking at your recipe, I’m going to make yours instead of mine… Or maybe I’ll make them both and see which one I like the best but either way I like how yours has so much less time and less ingredients for I’m sure it will be a packing flavor… Especially after reading comments.
    I am really loving the recipes that you were putting out there, I am enjoying listening to you as you cook… I feel right at home in your kitchen😊❣️, And I like all of the tips that you give us as well as how nice your videos are so that we can see exactly what’s going on up close… So many are so far away and they videotape very fast and it’s hard to catch everything and I’ve been cooking for years so if you get it past me that tells me you’re videotaping wrong. You’re just wonderful and such a lovely person and I thank you for the time you give to all of us and again, THANK YOU to share this SPECIAL recipe with us♥️

More importantly, my husband really loved it and went back for a second helping. There is just the two of us here so I split the recipe into two small pans and froze one for another meal. Thank you for this really delicious recipe. ❤️

    I cannot wait to try this! For years my mom rolled her enchiladas. Then she found a similar recipe to this, but with canned sauce. It was so much faster to make than rolled ones but still tasted great. I plan to make yours soon. The only change I will make is to add black olives. My mom (gone 21 years now) always added them and they taste so good with them!
