I don't know what these are, but they are NOT Santa Fe enchiladas. It is good, if a bit bland. Those of us from the southwest would not serve this to guests. I'm glad some like it, but I won't try this again.

These were a lot better than I thought! After reading the reviews, I thought they would be bland but this is one of the best enchilada recipes I've tried. I made it just as written except that I cooked it on the stove/oven instead of microwaving, and I halved the tomato paste and water. Other reviews said it was too tomatoey and I didn't think there was a need for more than 6 oz. of tomato paste with 1.5 lbs ground beef. I used a salsa con queso dip for the process cheese. This was great and I will definitely make it again!

My family loved this and it was great. I did pour 12oz of cheese sauce over the whole thing.

I've been making this for years. My kids love it and have friends who now have it as part of their rotation, too. I changed the recipe a little. I only use 1 lb of meat and add 1 can of drained kidney beans and a chopped green pepper. Also, you can be flexible to the cheese you have on hand. I've done it with shredded cheddar or you could use Velveeta. I don't top the dish with extra meat but I do add some black olives after the cheese.

Bland. The only thing I did differently from the recipe was omit the green chiles because I didn't have any on hand. This may have made the difference between a yuck recipe and a good one. It tasted like sloppy joe meat in a tortilla. bleh. So if there's a next time, I'll be adding some fajita spice, and probably using diced tomatoes with chilis, as I'm not much of a tomato paste lover anyway. The microwave approach was different, I've never made an entire dish in the microwave before. From that vantage, it came out better than expected.
