Entomatadas

To make entomatadas, start by making the tomato sauce. This can be done by blending together tomatoes, onion, garlic, and chili peppers. Then, heat up the sauce in a pan and dip the tortillas in it. Once the tortillas are coated in the sauce, fill them with your choice of filling, such as cheese, chicken, or beans. Roll up the tortillas and place them in a baking dish. Top with more sauce and cheese, and bake in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve hot with a side of rice and beans.
