1 lb Ground Beef

1 Tbs minced Garlic

1 tsp Chili Powder (this is up to you, my kids complain if its too spicy though)

1 1/2 tsp Cumin

Salt & Pepper

1 can Refried Beans

1 Pepper (I used Yellow)

5-6 large/Burrito Tortillas

1 jar Salsa

First preheat the oven to 375. Then brown the beef for about 4 minutes then add the sliced onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt & pepper and continue to cook for another 5 minutes. Once the meet cooked through remove from the pan and place in a large bowl. Put the pan back over heat and saute the sliced peppers.

While the peppers cook, stir occasionally, and mix the can of beans through the meat.

Add the peppers to the meat as well (peppers need about 4 minutes so they are tender but not squishy)

Grab your tortillas because you are ready to wrap!

Repeat until meat is all gone.

Cover the enchiladas with your favorite jar of salsa or enchilada sauce.

Then top with 1/2 cup shredded cheese, I used a sharp cheddar, but you could use pepper jack or anything else you have on hand.

Bake uncovered for 15 minutes. Its now ready to serve with whatever toppings you like. I had an avacado, but it wasn’t ripe enough so we settled for hot sauce and Sirracha.
