Stacy (California) says:

I made this and it is amazing--especially since I tweaked it to be healthier. I used only half a LB ground beef (90% lean, which I sautéed with the onions and a little beef consommé for flavor), then drained it and added beans and olives (instead of chiles, 4 oz.) I only added one cup of fat free refried beans, not 12 oz. I used 8 whole wheat fajita-size tortillas. I distributed 2 cups fat free shredded cheese throughout the recipe, topped with sauce and cooked as directed. 3 Tablespoons of filling per enchirito.
