Cheese Enchiladas



Enchilada Sauce
5 cups cheddar/jack cheese
6-8 Green onions, sliced with green tops
12 corn tortillas
oil or butter, melted
Sliced black olives (optional)

Mix 5 cups of cheese with green onions. Add 1/2 cup or so of enchilada sauce. Brush each tortilla with a bit of butter or oil and microwave the stack for 1 minute. Or fry each tortilla in a pan of hot oil, using tongs. Just until soft. Drain on paper towels. (If trying to cut back on fat, just heat gently in microwave.)

Spray baking pan with pam or olive oil. Pour small amount of enchilada sauce in the bottom of pan. Dip each tortilla briefly in sauce. Place filling in each tortilla, roll up, and place in dish. Pour sauce over tortillas and top with 1 cup of cheese. Add olives if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Serve with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream and guacamole if desired.
