Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef along with the diced onions until they become translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Add in the minced garlic, cumin, and chili powder; sauté for an additional minute.
Spoon the beef mixture onto each tortilla, rolling them tightly and placing them seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
Pour the enchilada sauce generously over the tortillas, then sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and golden.

Notes

For more flavor, add diced green chiles or black olives to the beef mixture. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. You can also freeze before baking for up to 3 months.
