In a heavy skillet, brown the ground meat.

While the meat browns:  mix together the enchilada sauce, tomato soup, and nacho cheese soup... all straight from the cans, undiluted.

Grease a casserole dish. (I use pan spray)

Add some sauce mixture- enough to cover the bottom of the casserole pan.

Place your cheese(s) in a bowl for easier access. (I mix mozzarella and co-jack shreds)

Drain the cooked meat.

Add some sauce mixture to the ground meat, enough to make it nice and moist, but not soupy.

Place a tortilla on a plate.

Add a scoop of ground meat.

Sprinkle with cheese.

 Roll tightly.

 Place seam side down in the sauce in the casserole dish.

Repeat the steps from "Place a tortilla on a plate" to this point, until your pan is full.

Snug the filled tortillas close to one another, rolling slightly to get a bit of sauce between the enchiladas.

When the pan is full, pour remaining sauce mixture over the enchiladas.

Spread with the back of a spoon.

Sprinkle with shredded cheese.

Bake at 350* 20- 35 minutes... until hot and bubbling.

Serve with a tossed green salad. (The salad in the picture is dressed with Catalina dressing, NOT enchilada sauce!)
