TIPS:
If you have a favorite taco seasoning you can save yourself the hassle of seasoning the meat on your own and just open and add the packet to your meat. The same can be said for the enchilada sauce. I listed the combo that I use because I like the favor this produces the best.  Remember when it comes to cooking that your own personal touches are what makes the dish your very own. Do not be afraid to play a little. Refried beans inside of an enchilada is very delicious too. You could also try adding a dollop of sour cream and fresh salsa over the top of your enchiladas for an added creamy kick! Yumm! :)
