SPINACH ALFREDO ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion and garlic until softened, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook and stir until mushrooms begin to soften, about 1 minute. Fold spinach into mixture and cook until wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat.
• Mix Monterey Jack cheese, cottage cheese, sour cream, salt, and black pepper into spinach mixture.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat; warm tortillas, 1 at a time, in the hot skillet until flexible, about 30 seconds per side.
• Spoon spinach mixture down the center of each warmed tortilla. Roll tortilla around filling; place filled tortillas seam sides down into a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Pour Alfredo sauce over the enchiladas; top with mozzarella cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is bubbling and cheese topping is slightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

CHEESE & ONION ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• 1. Set oven to 375 degrees. Dice up your onion and set aside 1/4 cup for the top of your enchiladas.
• 2. Saute the rest of the diced onions in some oil and then set aside in a bowl.
• 3. I used 2 bags of cheese and one additional cup of cheese to put on top of the enchiladas. Remove cheese from bags and toss together in a bowl and set aside.
• 4. Heat 1/2 cup of oil in a pan till hot...on a medium heat. You will want tongs to dip down each corn tortilla into the oil. You'll dip and flip 2x....very quickly as you do not want to fry them but just soften them.
• 5. Place your corn tortillas on a plate with a paper towel. One on top of another is fine as you will be rolling them as soon as you are finished dipping them in the oil.
• 6. Now you will place a handful of cheese in the middle of the tortilla with a small amount of sauteed onions on top of cheese.
• 7. Next roll tightly but gently as you don't want to tear the tortilla. Pour enough sauce on the bottom of your baking dish to cover.
• 8. Add your rolled enchilada to dish and pack them snugly into dish. I was able to fit 14 into my 9 by 13 inch dish.
• 9. Add your remaining sauce to the top of your enchiladas...or to your liking. However much sauce you want. Then add another 3/4 cup to a cup of cheese on top and then your 1/4 cup raw onions and 1/4 approx. of sliced black olives. Bake for 12 - 15 minutes.
• 10. Remove from oven and serve with some yummy Spanish rice & a small salad with pico or salsa w/sour cream. Top with chopped fresh cilantro if you have it.
• 11. Broken corn tortillas can be fried up in the leftover oil and then salted and served with dinner. They are better than store bought...so yummy.
• 12. Tracy Joyner's recipe for Red Enchilada Sauce...I doubled the recipe. This is super easy to make and very delicious! https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/sauce-spread-gravy/red-enchilada-sauce.html
