Servings: 10 mini enchiladas - 4 servings

Servings: 10 mini enchiladas - 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 3 tbsp onion, chopped
  • 1 can enchilada sauce
  • 1 medium zucchini
  • ⅓ to ½ cup Mexican blend cheese, shredded
  • salt to taste
  • optional: chopped green chilies
Steps
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. 2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add onion and saute until translucent. Add ground beef and salt to taste and cook on medium heat until no longer pink (about 5 to 10 minutes).
  3. 3. While the beef is browning prepare zucchini slices. Use a “Y vegetable peeler” to slice the zucchini into thin slices. You will need approximately 30 slices.
  4. 4. Remove skillet from stove and drain off any excess grease. Mix in half the can of enchilada sauce. If desired stir in chilies.
  5. 5. On a cutting board line up three slices of zucchini (allow them to slightly overlap). Spoon about 2 to 3 tablespoons of the beef mixture and then roll up. Gently place in baking dish. Repeat for remaining zucchini slices.
  6. 6. If desired sprinkle a small amount of salt over zucchini. Spoon remaining enchilada sauce over enchiladas. Sprinkle cheese over enchiladas.
  7. 7. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 to 20 minutes or until cheese is melted.
