They’re made with simple ground game meat and then combined with ingredients that really bring out those classic enchilada flavors!

Ingredients

– ground elk meat  – beans – green chiles – white onion – salt – pepper – red enchilada sauce – flour tortillas

In a skillet, add the ground elk meat, chopped onion, green chiles, salt, and pepper and cook over medium heat.

HOW TO MAKE ELK ENCHILADAS

Add the refried beans to the skillet and stir to combine. Remove from heat. Pour one can of enchilada sauce into the bottom of the dish and spread to cover the entire bottom.

Start to assemble your enchiladas. Lay a large flour tortilla out flat and add about 1/4 cup of the elk meat and bean filling to the center of the tortilla.

Fold one side of the tortilla over the filling and tuck it under, then continue rolling until it’s completely rolled. Place the rolled enchilada into the baking dish.

Drizzle the other can of enchilada sauce over the top of the rolled enchiladas. Then top with both types of shredded cheese.

Bake for 20 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Top with your choice of additional toppings – avocado, tomato, sour cream, etc. and serve.
