Recipe: 3-Minute Cheese Enchiladas

 
Not only are they quick and easy…But they’re baked, not fried! Delicious AND good-for-you? I’ve got the easiest and most delicious cheese enchilada recipe (if you can even call it a recipe). Check it out for yourself!

Ingredients (serves one):

• 3 corn tortillas
• 3 slices of cheddar cheese (I typically use Organic Valley Sliced Cheddar Cheese)
• ¼ cup red enchilada sauce (or green enchilada sauce, if you prefer – I typically use 505 Red Chile Sauce, which I order from Albuquerque, NM)

*Optional additions:

• ¼ cup chopped white onion
• 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
• Sour cream (room temperature)
• Fried egg

On a microwave-safe plate, place one tortilla and top with one slice of cheddar cheese, (optional) one tablespoon of chopped onion, and one tablespoon of enchilada sauce. Place second tortilla on top and repeat the steps above. Place third tortilla on top and repeat.
Place plate in the microwave 1.5 minutes. Check the enchiladas and return to microwave for 1 to 1.5 more minutes. Remove and enjoy!

(Optional) In a separate bowl, combine ¼ cup of sour cream with 1 tablespoon of chopped cilantro. Stir to mix ingredients, and then place a dollop atop enchiladas.
(Optional) Prepare one fried egg. Place atop enchiladas for a delicious breakfast (or dinner)!

Enjoy and bon appetit!
