When I saw Pioneer Woman post these enchiladas I fell off my chair drooling! Just kidding. I really didn’t fall off my chair. But I drooled… and printed off the recipe that second! I could just imagine the taste of them! I am such a sucker for Mexican food, especially enchiladas! Mmmmm I love em’! I also loved how simple and easy the recipe sounded. You all know me by now, and I am all about EASY recipes. I was so excited to come home and make these for dinner tonight. I just knew they would be fantastic… and boy were they ever!
If you’re a meat lover you could add some shredded chicken or ground beef. You could definitley play around with these enchiladas. As for me, I will always make them this way. I think they are so perfect and incredible just like this!

I heart Mexican food, too, as I grew up with it. My dad is hispanic so I always ate homemade tortillas and all that good stuff.
