Happy dos quinceanera y dos

We had a birthday this past week...Jon turned 32. So in celebration of the upcoming festivity I decided a Sunday dinner would be appropriate. One of jon's favorite meals happens to be chicken enchiladas so sticking with the Mexican theme I entitled the evening Jon's dos quinceanera y dos!

Despite the super creative name, the evening was low key. Joining us to celebrate was Michelle, Kate, Ryan, Maeve, Brian, Jeanne, Kane, & Brady. So happy they could all make it, made it a great time, escpecilly Kane who indulged me with an impromptu dance party!

So to keep things easy I made traditional chicken enchiladas as well as beef ones. I'd never done the beef before but they were really easy and got great reviews so I insist on sharing...

1 1/2 lb lean ground beef
1 bunch of green onions, finely chopped
1 diced fresh jalapeño pepper, or to taste
1/4 c. Water
1 package taco seasoning mix
1 c. Plain yogurt
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
2 c. Shredded mozzarella cheese
Corn tortillas

Preheat oven to 350

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook beef, onion, and jalapeño until beef is evenly browned. Stir in water & taco seasoning. Simmer until water has evaporated.

In a medium bowl, mix together yogurt, soup & cheese.

Divide meat mixture evenly between tortillas. Place a couple Tbsp of cheese mixture over meat and roll up. Place in baking dish, repeat for each tortilla. Spoon remIning cheese mixture over top of tortillas.

Bake for 20-30 minutes

Buen apetito!
