Instructions for Beef Jalapeño Enchiladas:

Place roast in a slow cooker with 1 cup water or beef broth, if you prefer. Cover and cook for 8 hours on low.

After the eight hours, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13 and a 9 x 9 baking dish with cooking spray. When, oven has reached 350 degrees, place both baking dishes in the oven for 8-10 minutes.

While the oven heats up and baking dishes heat, remove the roast from the slow cooker and shred the meat in a mixing bowl.

Then, add all but 3/4 cup sliced black olives, drained jalapeños, salt, pepper, onion powder, 1 cup red enchilada sauce, 1 1/2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese and 1 cup grated cheddar cheese to the shredded meat. Stir to combine.

Divide mixture between flour tortillas and roll up.

Remove the baking dishes from the oven and place rolled enchiladas into the pans.

Bake for 20 minutes uncovered at 350 degrees. Flour tortillas should begin to brown on the edges.

Remove from the oven and cover with remaining sauce and then remaining cheese.

Place back in the oven for 10 minutes-until hot and bubbly.

Remove from the oven and place remaining olive on top of the cheese. Serve with sour cream, diced tomatoes and shredded lettuce, if desired. Enjoy 😊
