The Cowboy Enchiladas are a classic Tex-Mex dish that are loved for their delicious flavor and comfort food appeal. This recipe features a hearty mixture of ground beef, vegetables, and cream of mushroom and chicken soups, all rolled up in a soft flour tortilla. These enchiladas are often served at large gatherings and are perfect for feeding a crowd. The creamy and savory filling pairs perfectly with the tangy Rotel tomatoes, making this dish a potluck favorite across Texas and the Southwest region.

Instructions

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2.Cook ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
3.Add diced onions, bell peppers, and celery to the skillet with the beef and stir to combine. Cook until vegetables have softened.
4.In a separate large mixing bowl, combine Rotel tomatoes, cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, and Cheese Whiz. Mix well.
5.Add the beef and vegetable mixture to the mixing bowl with the soup and tomato mixture and stir until well combined.
6.Pour a small amount of the mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly along the bottom. Place a flour tortilla on top, then spoon some of the mixture onto the tortilla and spread it evenly. Roll up the tortilla and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
7.Once all tortillas are in the baking dish, pour the remaining mixture over the top of the enchiladas.
8.Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the enchiladas are hot and bubbly. Serve immediately.
