Answer 3

I usually use a lot of enchiladas sauce, spicy or hot flavor, and then I'll get a lot of beans and sometimes ground beef. and shredded cheese.

Answer 4

I'm thinking that enchiladas is not what they were called.  enchiladas are a mexican dish.  They are made with corn tortillas rolled with cheese, seasoned ground or shredded beef, or chicken (meats are precooked); several enchiladas are laid in a baking dish and then red or green enchilada sauce is poured over the top, grated cheese is liberally sprinkled on top, then they are baked until the cheese is melted and the whole dish is hot.  Spices used are generally chili powder, cumin, and garlic.  It's very yummy.  Normally people will serve a side of spanish style rice, and refried pinto beans.  Sour cream and guacamole are served on the side (at least in my house it is :) )
