I love a delicious dinner I can put together fast, pop in the oven and then fully enjoy without a lot of cleanup afterward. That’s why this beef ‘n’ rice enchiladas recipe is pure genius. It does all that — and it delivers the zesty Tex-Mex flavor I adore. And did I mention it has lots of melty cheese? It’s so good! this dish is convenient, too. Our recipe uses instant rice and frozen corn, which cuts down on cooking time. Three toppings really bring it to life — chunky salsa, creamy guacamole and sour cream. Yum!

You can use prepared guacamole or make your own. This recipe is versatile. Once you prep the dish, it bakes for just 20 minutes, so it’s a quick, tasty and hearty dinner that’s super satisfying.
