Italian Enchiladas
The filling is easily adaptable to suit your tastes and what you have on hand. Here, I used a combination of ground beef, spicy Italian sausage and chopped pepperoni, along with mushrooms, artichokes, chopped spinach and creamy ricotta.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounces button mushrooms chopped
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- ¼ teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
- ½ pound ground beef
- ½ pound hot or mild Italian sausage removed from casings if necessary
- 7 ounces artichoke quarters, drained and roughly chopped 1/2 of a 14 ounce can
- 2 ounces organic pepperoni slices cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 cups baby spinach roughly chopped
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- ¼ cup chopped fresh basil leaves
- 3 cups marinara sauce (homemade or store-bought) 24 ounces
- 10 8-inch flour tortillas
- 8 ounces mozzarella cheese shredded
- Shredded Parmesan cheese for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; cook 4 to 6 minutes or until brown, stirring occasionally. Stir in garlic and rosemary; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Transfer mushroom mixture to small bowl.
- Return skillet to medium-high heat; add beef and sausage. Cook 8 minutes or until meat is cooked through, breaking up meat with side of spoon as it cooks. Remove skillet from heat; stir in artichokes, pepperoni, spinach, ricotta, basil and mushroom mixture.
- Spread 1 cup marinara sauce in bottom of 11x14-inch baking dish. Place flour tortilla on work surface. Spoon 1/2 cup meat mixture down center of tortilla. Roll up and place seam side down in prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Top enchiladas with remaining marinara sauce; sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
- Transfer to oven and bake 25 minutes. Serve garnished with Parmesan cheese, if desired.
