    Oh My God Ree, this is a terrific recipe! I made these enchiladas last night and the only thing I did different was use shredded beef (from a pot roast I slow cooked and my husband and I thought we died and went to Heaven! I have made enchiladas a million times but never added the diced green chilis, olives and green onions inside the enchilada!! It really gave it more pizazz and this will forever be our new, favorite enchilada recipe! Thanks so much!!

    These were delicious! They weren't as time consuming and messy as some of the reviews said either. I added garlic powder to the sauce and fresh garlic to the meat, I Los sautéed the chiles with the meat. I served them with avocado slices, tomato and our cream as well.

    My wife usually doesn't like ground beef enchiladas but Ree's looked really good and simple to make. When I placed them before her, I said, "Just try them; you like The Pioneer Woman!" and she gobbled them down! There are only two of us so I am happy that we have several leftovers for both of us to enjoy and pig them down. Thanks, Ree!

    After seeing Ree make these on her show, I decided to try and make them myself. I've never made enchiladas at home before, but these were really good. Will I make this exact recipe again? Probably not, and here is why. It's not that I didn't think this recipe didn't taste good, I just felt that there were some extra steps that didn't seem necessary (in my opinion and were time consuming especially if you want to get dinner ready quick. I didn't really see the point in adding the chicken broth to the enchilada sauce. I also didn't understand why you needed to fry up the tortillas in oil either. Is this a common thing to do for enchiladas? I don't mind spending extra time in the kitchen for a recipe that knocks my socks off, but this one didn't seem worth all the time and effort. I still plan on checking out some of Ree's other recipes though. :

    I had left over pork roast which I turned into a carnitas type filling instead of the ground beef and it was delicious. I've made many different enchiladas with many different types of fillings and recipes-to the point where my husband makes a face when I tells him enchiladas are for dinner. But these he really enjoyed! Messy prep and makes a lot of dirty dishes. Worth it, though!

    These enchiladas were very tasty. I used flour tortillas instead of corn because the corn were too small. It still turned out great. Also had some chicken leftover and made some with chicken. Great recipe to make hours before you need them and then only have to heat when ready.

    This was my first experience cooking enchiladas! Love watching your show, Ree. A friend of mine has raved about you for years, as she followed your blog. I just discovered your cooking show a few weeks ago & am hooked & THRILLED! I love watching your show, you just make it fun & real! Haven't read your blog yet, but definitely gonna have to check it out! Just baked the 'Knock You Naked Brownies', too, but they just came out of the oven, so to early to call those, but with those ingredients, I don't see how it can go wrong! :

    As for the enchiladas, the only thing that got us was the onions and the chiles, but I should have cut back on those when I was baking them. We like 'some' spicy, but not too much, so next time I'll just modify. I hadn't ever fried tortillas!! So, thanks for teaching me how. Kind of messy, very grateful for dishwasher!!
    LOVE your show!! Only show other than the occasional Paula Deen show! Have both your cookbooks now as well!

    This recipe was so good! When it comes to enchiladas, my first pick is usually chicken, but these just might make me change my mind! Tonight was the first time I've made these and I'm pretty sure it will be my go to recipe now. The ingredients are so simple that I was a little afraid they would lack some oomph, but I was wrong. The sauce was so good. I was worried it would be soupy like some of the other reviews had said, but mine were not. The only things I did differently was to add garlic to the ground beef while cooking and use fajita size flour tortillas and skip the frying in oil part. I just submerged them in the warm sauce and then filled them, rather than frying. Definitely messy to make, but worth it! This is a keeper.
