Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning or dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 6 flour or corn tortillas
  • 1 1/2 cups pizza sauce, divided
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup pepperoni slices (optional)
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers or mushrooms (optional)
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese (optional)
  • Fresh basil or parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion until soft, about 3–4 minutes.
  3. Add garlic and ground beef, cooking until browned. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Stir in 2–3 tablespoons of pizza sauce to coat.
  4. Lay out tortillas and fill each with beef mixture and a bit of shredded mozzarella. Roll and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
  5. Pour remaining pizza sauce over enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese.
  6. Add pepperoni, olives, bell peppers, or other desired toppings.
  7. Bake for 20–25 minutes until hot and bubbly.
  8. Cool slightly, then garnish with parmesan and fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

  • Warm corn tortillas before rolling to prevent cracking.
  • Use low-carb tortillas or ground turkey for a lighter version.
  • Make ahead and refrigerate overnight, adding cheese before baking.
  • Use Alfredo sauce for a creamy variation.
  • Freeze individual enchiladas for up to 2 months.
