Beef Enchiladas

EverydayCooked

Beef enchiladas are a traditional Mexican dish featuring corn tortillas rolled around seasoned ground beef and baked under a chili-based sauce, typically topped with melted cheese. This protein-rich meal derives its bold flavor from spices like cumin and chili powder, though its calorie density and sodium content can vary significantly depending on sauce and cheese quantities. Authentic preparations often include toppings like fresh cilantro, diced onions, or sour cream to balance the dish’s richness.
