Repeat with remaining tortillas. Cover the rolls with remaining enchilada sauce, and then sprinkle some cheese for garnish.
Bake the enchiladas for about 35 minutes. Sprinkle some olives, spring onions & serve.

Tip:
Instead of onions & bell peppers you can add re fried beans for filling the tortillas.
You can add olives & jalapenos inside with beans too.
