Cheesy Enchiladas with Wheat Flour Tortillas

Submitted by : Cindy Campbell
Location: Fayetteville, Arkansas

Wheat Flour Tortillas:
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp., baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 TB. Vegetable oil
1 cup water
Cheesy Enchiladas:
Filling: (combine)
1 lb. extra lean ground beef or turkey, browned & drained
1 (16 oz) can fat free refried beans
1/2 pkg. (2 1/2 Tbs.) taco seasoning mix

Sauce: (blend)
1 (11 oz) can nacho cheese soup
1 (4oz) can chopped green chilies
1 (16 oz.) container no fat sour cream
10 (8 inch) Wheat Flour Tortillas
1 1/2 cup reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese

Wheat Flour Tortillas:
Combine both flours, baking powder and salt. Stir in oil until mixture is crumbly. Add the water to form a soft dough. Knead by hand 5 min. Cover; let dough rest 30 min. Preheat a cast iron or nonstick griddle over med. heat. (Can use an electric skillet, heat to 350. Do not oil griddle or elect. skillet. Divide dough into 12 pieces. Flatten and roll each ball of dough on lightly floured surface until paper thin, turning frequently. Roll out to 8" in dia. Cook tortillas 45 seconds to 1 minute on each side, until light brown specks appear. Do not overcook. A well made tortilla puffs as it is cooking. Remove from griddle and wrap in clean towel to keep warm or use in your favorite recipe. May be wrapped and frozen when cooked.

Enchiladas:
Preheat oven to 350. Spread 1 1/2 cups of the sauce in a 13 x 9 casserole. Divide the filling equally and place on each tortilla. Top each with 2 Tbs. cheese. Roll up each tortilla and place, seam side down, in pan. Pour remaining sauce over tortillas. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup cheddar cheese on top. Cover with foil and bake 30 min. Remove foil and bake an additional 15 min.
Can be frozen. I wrap very tightly when completely cooled.
