Description

A delicious fusion of pizza and enchiladas, perfect for family dinners and gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 tortillas
  • 1 cup pepperoni, chopped
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup bell peppers, diced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Cook the ground beef until browned, ensuring it’s well-cooked and crumbly.
  3. Add the chopped pepperoni, diced bell peppers, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Sauté this mixture for about 5 minutes until the peppers soften and the flavors meld.
  4. Spread a layer of pizza sauce on the bottom of a baking dish, generously coating the base.
  5. Take a tortilla, fill it with the beef and pepperoni mixture, and top it with mozzarella cheese. Roll the tortilla and place it in the baking dish seam side down.
  6. Repeat the rolling and placing process with the remaining tortillas, ensuring each one is snugly fit in the dish.
  7. Pour the remaining pizza sauce over the top, making sure to cover as much as possible. Then, sprinkle additional cheese on top.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  9. Allow the enchiladas to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

These enchiladas are great for leftovers and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days or frozen for three months.
