Two flour tortillas filled with seasoned ground beef, onions, and cheese smothered in enchilada sauce and baked for just 20 minutes! A quick and easy single serving meal.
In a 10" skillet over medium heat, heat oil 30 seconds. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook an additional 1 minute.
Add ground beef, salt, pepper, chili powder, and cumin and cook, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown, about 8 minutes.
Remove pan from heat and transfer cooked ground beef to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
Spread 2 tablespoons of enchilada sauce over bottom of a small baking dish.
Warm tortillas so they are pliable. Place 1 tablespoon of cheese in the center of each tortilla, then divide meat evenly between each tortilla. Roll up each tortilla tightly, then arrange in a baking dish.
Pour ⅓ cup of enchilada sauce over tops of the tortillas and sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese has melted. Enjoy hot.

Notes
Spice Up the Filling: Incorporate freshly chopped jalapeños or serrano peppers into the beef mixture for an added layer of heat.
Double the Fun: For a two-serving meal, simply double the ingredients and use a larger baking dish.
Toppings Galore: Consider garnishing your beef enchiladas with fresh tomatoes, cilantro, black olives, and sour cream for a burst of flavors and textures.
Green Twist: Switch to green enchilada sauce for a unique flavor profile, akin to our Enchiladas Verdes.
