    Recipe Introduction


    6 Servings

    List of Ingredients




    2 cups tomato puree
    2 1/3 cups water
    2 tablespoons chili powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 teaspoons sugar
    1 pound Cheddar cheese -- shredded
    1/2 cup chopped onion
    1 bunch green onions -- sliced
    1 dozen corn tortillas
    1/2 cup oil

    Recipe




    Combine tomato puree, water, chili powder, salt and sugar in a saucepan.
    Bring to a boil and simmer 30 minutes.
    Combine about 3 1/2 cups shredded cheese, onions and 3/4 of the sliced green onions.
    Dip tortillas in oil in round shallow pan to cover completely. Shake off excess oil
    and place tortillas on baking sheet.
    Bake at 550°F for 3 minutes until they are limp. Do not overcook.
    Reduce heat to 350F.
    Place 2 cups enchiladas in 12x9-inch baking dish or shallow baking pan.
    Using a slotted spatula, transfer tortillas to sauce pan to moisten.
    Remove each tortilla and fill with about 1/4 cup of the onion filling.
    Roll tightly and return to baking dish, allowing space between each enchilada.
    Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
    Just before serving, heat enchiladas 5 minutes to melt cheese. Heat remaining sauce and
    spoon over enchiladas. Garnish with remaining green onion.
