About Fast foods, enchilada, with cheese and beef

An enchilada is a corn tortilla rolled around a filling — here beef and cheese — then covered in a chili-based sauce and baked until the cheese melts. It's a Mexican-restaurant staple, comforting and savory, with the soft tortilla and rich sauce doing much of the heavy lifting.

At about 168 calories per 100 grams it's moderate by the spoonful, carrying around 9 grams of fat (much of it saturated dairy fat from the cheese), roughly 16 grams of carbohydrate from the tortilla, and about 6 grams of protein. The standout figure is sodium, at roughly 687 milligrams per 100 grams — among the higher numbers in this group, thanks to the cheese, seasoned beef and sauce. Cholesterol is around 21 milligrams.

Enchiladas are usually served two or three to a plate alongside rice and beans, so a full restaurant order multiplies that sodium and calorie count quickly. Ordering a single enchilada, choosing a chicken or bean filling over beef-and-cheese, and balancing the plate with extra vegetables or a side salad keeps the meal in check.
