 Ingredients

For the Filling:

• 1½ pounds lean ground beef

• 1 medium onion, finely chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tablespoon chili powder

• 1 teaspoon ground cumin

• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Enchiladas:

• 8 corn tortillas

• 2 cups red enchilada sauce

• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

• Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

 Directions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

2. Prepare the Filling: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, chopped onion, and minced garlic until the beef is browned and the onion is translucent. Drain any excess fat. Stir in chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the spices to meld.

3. Assemble the Enchiladas: Warm the corn tortillas slightly to make them pliable. Spread about ¼ cup of the beef mixture down the center of each tortilla. Roll up the tortillas tightly and place them seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.

4. Add Sauce and Cheese: Pour the red enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses over the top.

5. Bake: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

6. Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
