Michael’s Enchiladas
ENCHILADA CASSEROLE - INGREDIENTS
* crock pot
* 2 doz. corn tortillas
* 2 chopped onions
* 2 – 3 lb shredded cheddar cheese
* 1 – 2 qts. chile of your choice, red or green. You can also buy enchilada chile sauce at the store, Old El Paso brand is good...

HOW TO MAKE THE ENCHILADA CASSEROLE
1. heat up the chile, red or green
2. add some of the chile (1/16th") to the bottom of the crock pot
3. place a corn tortilla in the bottom of the crock pot
4. add onions and shredded cheese to the top of the tortilla
5. add chile over the onions and cheese
6. repeat steps 3 - 5 until crock pot is full

Cook 1/2 to 1 hour until cheese is bubbling, then serve.
Serves as many people as the crock pot can feed.

VARIATION – ROLLED OVEN ENCHILADAS
* all ingredients above
* baking pan (10" x18"?)
* light cooking oil to fry the tortillas

1. In a pan, fry the tortillas individually in about medium heat - they should bubble and take about 20 - 30 seconds to complete. Once done, place the tortillas into a pan for the next step.
2. In a baking pan place the tortillas one by one into the pan, and into each place cheese and onions then roll it into a tube.
3. Do this for all tortillas. It mat take 15 or so to fill a pan.
4. Once the pan is full (you can make 2 pans for more people), place it into the oven and heat until the cheese is bubbling - at about 300 degrees for 1/2 hour or so THIS IS JUST A GUESS, you have to watch them carefully.
