Ingredients

  • 3 cups fully cooked ham cubed
  • 1/2 cup green onions sliced
  • 8, 8 " flour tortillas
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese divided
  • 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups Half-and-Half
  • 6 eggs beaten
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Spray a 9 x 13 pan with non-stick cooking spray. 
  • Combine your onions with your ham. Put approximately 1/3 of a cup down the center of your tortilla, top with 2-3 Tablespoons of cheese. Roll “enchilada style” and place seam side down in the pan. Do this for all 8 tortillas.
  • In a mixing bowl combine the eggs with the flour, half and half, salt and pepper. Beat until mixed thoroughly. Pour over tortillas. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours. 
  • Remove the enchiladas 30 minutes before you are ready to bake them. Top with remaining cheese. 
  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Bake covered for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake for 15 minutes more. The cheese will be melted and bubbly.
  • Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with salsa, sour cream, guacamole, whatever your heart desires!

Notes

You can use cheddar cheese to make them milder. Or pepper jack if you want to spice things up!
