Enchilada's with Spanish Rice and Refried Beans
This is another of my grandmother's recipes and is a huge family favorite! Of course I don't make my rice or beans from scratch, but it's still comes out good!

*1 package of corn tortilla's (white or yellow)
*3 small cans enchilada sauce (or 2 large)
*1 med onion, diced (optional)
*1 6oz can tomato sauce
*1 teaspoon salt
*1 teaspoon pepper
*2 Tablespoons chili powder
*2 Tablespoons cumin

Step 1: Cook hamburger and drain grease.
Step 2: Add cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper and tomato sauce. Bring to a simmer. Cook for 1 minute and remove from heat.
Step 3: Pour the enchilada sauce in a large bowl.
Step 4: Dip each tortilla in the sauce and place in your oven safe dish. Add a spoonful of meat mixture, some onion and cheese. Roll up and slide to the side, with the edges facing down. Repeat this step until all are done, filling each dish.
Step 5: Add about 1 cup of cheese and some onion over the top and spread it evenly.
Step 6: Pour about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of the sauce on top and cook at 350 for 15 mintues or until cheese is melted.
