RED CHILE ENCHILADAS
I stumbled upon this recipe ages ago but recently came across it in my recipe box. These are the best red enchiladas I have ever tasted! The store bought canned red sauce is bitter and has an off taste but the sauce in this recipe is awesome! You may use ground beef for the meat but I prefer to use shredded beef roast. I usually triple the recipe to have leftovers for the kids.
