8 oz. ground beef
1 (4.5-oz.) can (diced) green chiles
1/2 c. canned black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 c. canned corn kernels, drained
1 1/4 c. shredded cheddar cheese, divided

HOW TO MAKE BEEF ENCHILADAS
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F.
Step 2: In the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, pour 1 cup of enchilada sauce and set aside.
Step 3: In a saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the ground beef, green chiles, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for approximately 3 to 5 minutes or until browned, crumbling the beef as it cooks. When done, drain any excess grease.
Step 4: Combine the beef, corn, beans, half cup Monterey Jack cheese, and half cup cheddar cheese in a large bowl.
Step 5: On a flat surface, lay the tortilla. In the centre of the tortilla, spoon 1/4 cup of the beef mixture. Now, roll the tortilla and put it on the prepared baking dish seam-side-down. Do this for the rest of the tortillas and beef mixture.
Step 6: Top the filled tortillas with the rest of the enchilada sauce and cheeses.
Step 7: Bake the enchiladas for approximately 20 minutes in the preheated oven until bubbly. Remove from the oven when done and serve right away garnished with cilantro, avocado, and tomato. Enjoy!
