Clinton's Favorite Chinchillas

8/20/2012

0 Comments

 
No, it's not really Chinchillas, it's Enchiladas (haven't you people ever seen Super Troopers!?). Even though this is Clinton's favorite dish I make, Lucas really likes them, too. They take a while to make, but the great thing is the versatility and simple ingredients! Plus, leftovers heat up FANTASTIC! Serves 4 to 6 adults.

From Around the House

  1. Large Frying Pan
  2. Water
  3. 13 x 9 Baking Dish (glass is best)
  4. Pan Spray (such as PAM)
  5. A way to dispose meat drippings
  6. Stove
  7. Oven
  8. Large Wooden Spoon

Grocery List

  1. One Pound Ground Beef
  2. One box Hamburger Helper Cheesy Enchilada Mix
  3. 2 Cups shredded cheese
  4. 3 small cans Enchilada Sauce (Old El Passo) 
  5. 10 Large Burrito Shells (La Banderita Brand)
  6. Small Can Green Chiles (optional)
  7. Sour Cream (optional for garnish)

The Recipe

  1. Brown Ground Beef, drain.
  2. Prepare Hamburger Helper according to package directions (add a can of green chiles if desired).
  3. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees while the Hamburger Helper is cooking.
  4. Grease baking dish with pan spray
  5. Pour one can of Enchilada Sauce in the bottom of the baking dish
  6. Once the Hamburger Helper is complete, use a large wooden spoon to scoop portions into the center of the large burrito shells. Top mixture with cheese, fold sides of shell in, and roll in burrito-like fashion. Tightly arrange rolled Enchiladas in baking dish, until full (or your Hamburger Helper runs out, whichever comes first), reserving some cheese.
  7. Pour remaining two cans of Enchilada sauce over the Chinchillas.
  8. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes
  9. Sprinkle with remaining cheese, bake additional 15 minutes or until cheese is brown and bubbly.
  10. Serve hot with sour cream


NOTE: Can also be prepared in the Crock Pot! Instead of placing ingredients into a baking dish, put it in the crock pot. Cook for 2 to 3 hours on low.
