Cheesy Enchilada Rice Skillet

Yum

November 7, 2014 by Jodi + 3 Comments

Delicious, cheesy and loaded with yumminess, this Cheesy Enchilada Rice Skillet is perfect for a simple weeknight meal. It’s the easiest enchilada you will ever make,  just throw everything into a skillet and you’re good to go.

This is going to be a super duper short post because it’s late and all I really need to tell you about this dish is MAKE IT!

Dinners don’t get much easier than this. This Cheesy Enchilada Rice Skillet is the bomb!

Sometimes meatless meals just seem to hit the spot and this one definitely does. But you could also easily throw in some shredded chicken or cooked ground beef or turkey.

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I just want a meatless meal – something simple and tasty.  This cheesy enchilada rice skillet is amazing!  Super simple, super quick and super fabulous.  Throw some grilled chicken in if you want, that would be delicious. I served it with some cheese quesadillas and fruit . . .it was a perfect, simple meal.

Enjoy!
