Cheese enchiladas are a beloved staple of Mexican cuisine, known for their rich, comforting flavors. These savory dishes consist of tortillas typically filled with shredded cheese, rolled, and smothered in a flavorful chili-based sauce. Often baked to melty perfection, they may be garnished with ingredients like chopped onions, cilantro, or sour cream. While cheese enchiladas offer a good source of calcium and protein thanks to the cheese, they can also be high in saturated fat and sodium, depending on the preparation. When paired with a side of beans or a fresh salad, they can be part of a balanced meal. Using whole grain tortillas and opting for reduced-fat cheese can make them a more nutritious choice without sacrificing flavor. A comforting classic that highlights the rich culinary traditions of Mexico, cheese enchiladas are as versatile as they are satisfying.
