Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2.5 cups / 225 g Cheddar cheese, freshly shredded ((Important - read Note 1))
1 tbsp cornflour / cornstarch
1/2 tbsp / 8 g butter
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/4 small white onion, very finely chopped (1/4 cup)
375 g / 13 oz evaporated milk (1 can, not low fat)
1 small tomato, finely diced (3/4 cup) ((Note 2))
1/4 tsp each onion powder, garlic powder, cumin
4 oz / 113g can chopped green chile, fire roasted ((Subs Note 3))
1/4 cup coriander / cilantro, finely chopped
2 - 3 tbsp milk, any
Salt

Steps:

  • Place cheese and cornflour in a bowl, toss to coat.
  • Melt butter over medium heat in a large saucepan or small pot.
  • Add garlic and onion, cook slowly for 3 minutes or until onion is translucent but not browned.
  • Add tomato (including juices) and cook for 2 minutes until tomato is slightly softened.
  • Add evaporated milk and cheese. Stir, then add chiles and Spices.
  • Stir until cheese melts and it becomes a silky sauce.
  • Add salt to taste - amount required depends on saltiness of cheese used - and stir through coriander.
  • Stir in milk or water to adjust consistency (I use 2 tbsp) - the dip thickens when it cools, and milk can be added later to adjust to taste.
  • Remove from heat. Serve warm or at room temperature - it will be soft and scoopable even when it cools.
  • Store in the refrigerator. When refrigerated, it becomes the consistency of the cheese spread sold in jars that are not in the refrigerator section. Reheat in microwave and adjust consistency as desired with a tiny bit of milk. If you add too much, just put on stove again until it thickens.

EASY CHEESY VELVEETA ENCHILADAS



Easy Cheesy Velveeta Enchiladas image

I love enchiladas, but making them with shredded cheese is so messy I avoided them. Then I realized a Mexican restaurant I loved made their enchiladas from a cheese that tasted like Velveeta. I was inspired. My family loves these and I have to make a LOT when I make them. If you don't like Velveeta, you probably won't like them, though. Not everyone will like my method of softening the tortillas, either, but use your own method if you don't. This makes a lot of sauce to use on top, you may not choose to use it all.

Categories     Cheese

Time 40m

Yield 16 enchiladas, 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

16 corn tortillas
1 lb Velveeta reduced fat cheese product or 1 lb Velveeta Mexican cheese
1 (15 ounce) can chili without beans
1 cup campbells southwest nacho cheese soup
1 medium white onion

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Spray a baking dish with cooking spray fairly heavily.
  • Chop the onion, can be however you like it from minced to rough chopped.
  • Cut the Velveeta into one ounce portions.
  • Soften the tortillas. I use a no-fat method by freezing my tortillas. When I take them from the freezer, I place the frozen package in the microwave and the water in the package steams the tortillas. You can soften them however you want,normally be heating the tortila with chicken broth, or vegetable oil until soft.
  • Take one portion of the velveeta, a small amount of chopped onion, place on the tortillas and roll.
  • Place the tortillas, seam side down, in the baking dish.
  • Mix the can of chile and the can of soup together and pour over the enchiladas.
  • Bake 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the topping is bubbly.
  • Let cool a few minutes before serving.
