Remove meat & shred on a plate - set aside.Pour the meat liquid into a gravy separator & allow the fat to rise before returning the liquid to the pan (minus the fat).Bring the liquid back to a simmer & add the Sauce Mix & tomato sauce. Allow sauce to thicken to desired consistency.In a bowl add a ladle or 2 of sauce to the shredded meat & stir gently to coat.Spray a 13x9 inch casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray & spread a ladle of sauce over the bottom. To build enchiladas:Add about 2oz meat & 1 tbs cheese shreds to each tortilla, roll lightly & place edge side down in pan to prevent unrolling. Continue until pan is full or you are out of filling - usually yields 8 enchiladas.Pour remaining sauce evenly over enchiladas.
