I used to love trying recipes and making adjustments and deciding what I like best, but unfortunately I have to watch what I eat now, and only get to splurge a few times a year so I have to rely on the charity of others to guide me to the good stuff.
I like tex mex style with lots of cheese and sour cream. I prefer flour tortillas, but I think they're usually interchangeable if a recipe calls for corn tortillas. Anyone have a great Beef Enchilada Casserole recipe for me?
Any great enchilada recipe starts with quailty meat, cheese,tortillas and sauce. Other than that it's just about layering.
Cook your self a great tasting roast in the crock pot slowly with lots of good seasonings. Use good quailty monterey jack cheese that YOU grate yourself. Lastly you need a good sauce if you think you cant make one yourself then get Las Palmas or El Pato enchilada sauce put into pan and thicken a little before using. Oh yeah the tortillas, get fresh made if you can.
When I don't make my own sauce I get one can of El Pato Jalapeno sauce, one can of the El Pato green enchilada sauce and mix.
Sometimes I will sautee red, orange and yellow peppers with onions and layer them in with the beef.

I got this one from Taste Of Home and I have made it 3 or 4 times since July of this year. So far, it is my favorite at-home enchilada recipe. If you try it let me know what you think - it is not my own recipe, but I am copy/pasting it for you.

With a toddler in the house, I look for foods that are a snap to make. Loaded with beef, cheese and a flavorful rice mix, these enchiladas come together with out any fuss. But they're so good that guests think I spent hours in the kitchen. -Jennifer Smith Colona, Illinois
This recipe is:
Prepare rice mix according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in Spanish rice and 1-1/4 cups enchilada sauce.
Spoon about 2/3 cup beef mixture down the center of each tortilla. Top each with 1/3 cup cheese; roll up.
Place in an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Top with the remaining enchilada sauce and cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Yield: 10 enchiladas.
The only changes I have made are to use a Mexican Rice and Pasta mix (instead of Spanish rice), and I use one can of hot and one can of mild enchilada sauce. I always have extra cheese, sliced black olives, sour cream, and diced tomatoes on the table for hubby to add and I always serve re-fried beans with it. I love it, personally.

I was going to try to make enchiladas myself. I have these basic ingredients.
Ground beef.
Taco bell mild taco sauce
green mild chile enchilada sauce
Fresh pico degallo( onions, tomato, cilantro and other stuff)
Taco mix cheese( cheddar and monterey jack, plus taco sseasonings)
Sour cream.
Then a mexican rice from Lipton or rice and beans from Zattarains.
Soft tortilla shells
Is that about enough?
