I have another yummy meal that is perfect for summer. There is no need to turn on the oven for these saucy quick beef skillet enchiladas. They are made completely on the stove top. So grab and skillet and get ready to make these.
I have another version I made when I first began my blog. They are more of a traditional enchilada. These enchiladas are more of a casserole style.
These quick beef skillet enchiladas were a hit with the family. I will probably keep them in my regular meal rotation. You can also top them off however you like. My family likes to just use sour cream. I like to add olives and maybe some chopped cilantro or diced green onion. If I really want to enjoy them, I will use guacamole! You really can get this one to the table in about 20 minutes!
I recently became a Canbassador for Cans Get You Cooking and this is a great “Cantry” recipe. I love to keep a well stocked “Cantry” including canned soups, tomatoes, beans, fruit, and vegetables. It really helps to make it easy to get dinner on the table.
