Beef Enchiladas

This is what I am making for dinner tonight! Has been one of my favorite dinners since I was little and Roxie would make! Yummy!

Ingredients
1 lb ground beef

1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)

½ cup sour cream

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1/4 tsp ground pepper

1/3 cup green bell pepper, chopped

2/3 cup water

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves

1/4 tsp ground cumin

4.5 oz can diced green chiles

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

1 15 oz cab tomato sauce

8 tortillas (5-6" in diameter)

Directions

1. Heat oven to 350.

2. Cook beef and onion in 10-inch skillet over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain. STIR in sour cream, 1 cup cheese, the parsley, and pepper. Remove from heat.

3. Heat bell pepper, water, chili powder, oregano, cumin, chilies (which I don’t use), garlic, and tomato sauce to boiling in 2-qt saucepan, stirring occasionally; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered 5 minutes. Pour into ungreased pie plate.

4. Dip each tortilla into sauce in pie plate to coat both sides. SPOON about ¼ cup beef mixture onto each tortilla; fold up tortilla. Place seam side down in ungreased rectangular baking dish, 11 x 7 x 1 ½ inches. Pour remaining sauce over enchiladas.

5. Bake uncovered about 20 minutes or until bubbly.
6. Garnish with shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped onions.  I also put salsa on top!
