Ground Pork Enchiladas

I put these super yummy enchiladas together the other night and they were a huge hit with the hubby! I honestly believed him when he said that they were great. He ate three of them and finished the leftovers last night! (That's how I know he wasn't just saying they were good.) Being married to a hog farmer means lots of pork. I try to use pork in a lot of recipes and have found that it actually tastes better than beef in some of them.

Ground Pork Enchiladas
1 lb. ground pork
chopped onion, to taste
garlic powder, to taste
1 can rotel tomatoes and green chiles
2 10 oz. cans green enchilada sauce
1 can refried beans
cheese
tortilla shells
Cook the pork, onions, and garlic until pork is cooked through. Add the rotel and 1/2 of one can of the enchilada sauce. Let this simmer for about 10 minutes.










Then it is time to assemble the enchiladas. First, spread some refried beans onto the tortilla shell.









Add some meat mixture and cheese.










Fold up and put in a greased 9x13 pan. Once they are all wrapped up, spread the left over refried beans on top. Then sprinkle with cheese and the remaining sauce. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees until bubbly. This makes about 8 enchiladas.










Happy cooking!

    Do you brown the burros once wrapped? What do you do with the rest of the enchilada sauce? It calls for 2 cans, but the directions say only use 1/2 of it? Do you put the rest in the pan before or after you add the burros to the pan?
