Cheesy Spinach Enchilada Recipe is a simple recipe to make and tastes amazing. Tortillas are filled with a sauteed Spinach and Mexican Chilli cheese spread. This spread gives it that creaminess and the delicious taste of Mexican cuisine.

The secret why these Cheese Spinach Enchiladas stand apart is because of the special homemade spicy sauce. The sauce is flavoured with cumin powder and spiced with chili powder and tabasco sauce. 

Grated Britannia Cheezza is topped on the Spinach Enchilada and then baked till the cheese is melted and bubbling. 

They are a crowd favourite and everyone who tries them will come back for a second helping. They make a great meal for a comforting weekend dinner. For dinner parties you can make the sauce and filling ahead of time and keep it refrigerated. Simply assemble and bake and serve. 

Serve these Cheesy Spinach Enchilada Recipe along with  Kiwi Basil Lemonade Recipe for dinner and Salted Caramel Ice Cream Recipe With Salted Roasted Almonds as a dessert for your next get together with friends and family.
