Crockpot Enchilada Stack
Simply turn on your crockpot and forget all about it until you have the cheesiest and creamiest enchiladas ever! It’s so easy!
I was a little skeptical with the corn included but it was very good!
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup corn kernels, frozen, canned or roasted
1 cup salsa, homemade or store-bought
1 (4.5-ounce) can chopped green chiles, drained
2 teaspoons taco seasoning mix
1 (10-ounce) can mild enchilada sauce, divided (I prefer Rosarita brand)
4 burrito size or 8 soft taco size flour tortillas
3 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese, divided
Optional garnishings
1 avocado, halved, seeded, peeled and diced, garnishing for serving
1 Roma tomato, diced, garnishing for serving
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves, garnishing for serving
Directions:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the beef as it cooks; drain excess fat and remove from heat.
Stir in black beans, corn, salsa, green chiles, taco seasoning and enchilada sauce, reserving 1/2 cup.
Lightly coat the inside of Crockpot with non-stick cooking spray.
Place 1/2 cup enchilada sauce on bottom of the Crockpot.
Place 1 burrito size tortilla or 2 soft taco size tortillas on the bottom of the Crockpot.
Spread 1/3 ground beef mixture evenly over the top; sprinkle with 3/4 cup cheese.
Repeat with 2 more layers.
Top with remaining tortilla, enchilada sauce, and cheese.
Cover and cook on low heat for 3-4 hours or high heat for 2-3 hours.
Serve immediately, garnished with avocado, tomato, and / or cilantro, if desired.
