It’s always a blast partnering with Old El Paso to bring you new simple dinner ideas. Hands down some of my very favorite type of recipes to develop. I know how busy the weeknights get with the kids, so I love having simple dinners on regular rotation.
Instead of rolling individual enchiladas, I cut up tortillas and did a “layered enchilada” dish that’s done in about 30 minutes from start to finish. All simple pantry ingredients too. This is a great dinner recipe to get the kids to help with. They’ll love feeling apart of dinnertime.
Hope you enjoy!
