Spicy Beef Enchiladas

Total time: 35 minutes
   You can make this as hot or not by your choice of taco sauce, how much chili powder you use and by adding hotter peppers and/or hot sauce.  I'm a wimp... this is my recipe.  Adjust as you want ;-))

 Ingredients:

• 8oz (240gr) ground beef (or turkey)
• 1 onion
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 - 2 tsp chili powder
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 4oz (120gr) green chilies  or something hotter if your prefer
• 15oz (450gr) refried beans
• 1 tbs olive oil
• 1 cup (4oz, 120gr) shredded cheese - divided,  cheddar, colby
• 2 jars enchilada or taco sauce,  10oz each  (300 ml) (mild or hot)
• 1/3 cup (3oz, 90ml) Greek yogurt, or sour cream   approximately
• 4 corn or wheat tortillas 

 Instructions:

• Chop onion. 
• Finely chop garlic. 
• Drain chilies, chop if whole. 
• Heat oil in large nonstick skillet.  Add chili powder, cumin, and sauté 1 minute. 
• Add onion and garlic; sauté 5 minutes. 
• Add beef and sauté, breaking it up as it browns. 
• Add 1/3 of the beans and enough taco sauce to just kind of hold it all together, 1/3 - 1/2 cup. 
• Remove from heat.  Add green chilies and 1/2 cup of the cheese, mix well.
• Put 1/3 cup of enchilada or taco sauce into a baking dish large enough to hold 4 enchiladas.  
• Divide the beef/bean mixture into fourths.  Spoon each fourth onto a tortilla and roll up.  Place seam side down on the sauce in the baking dish. 
• Pour the rest of the Enchilada/Taco sauce over the finished enchiladas, sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. 
• Bake at 375F  (190C) for 20 minutes, until heated through and cheese is bubbly. 
• Heat remaining beans.
• Serve Enchiladas with Greek yogurt and beans on the side.
