Can I use corn tortillas instead of flour?

Yes, corn tortillas work great and are the traditional choice. Warm them slightly before rolling to prevent cracking.

Can I freeze these enchiladas?

Absolutely. Assemble but don't bake, then wrap tightly and freeze for up to 3 months. Bake from frozen, adding 10-15 minutes to the cooking time.

Why are my enchiladas soggy?

This usually happens from too much sauce or not draining the beef properly. Make sure to drain excess grease and don't overdo the sauce.

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish.
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with diced onions until translucent (5-7 minutes). Drain excess grease.
