Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning or oregano
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
  • 20–30 pepperoni slices (chopped or whole)
  • 1 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce, plus extra for topping
  • 8–10 flour tortillas
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for greasing baking dish)
  • Optional: black olives, chopped bell peppers, red pepper flakes, grated parmesan

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13‑inch baking dish with olive oil.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning until browned. Drain any fat.
  3. Stir in 1/2 cup pizza sauce and some chopped pepperoni; simmer for 2–3 minutes.
  4. Spoon meat mixture into tortillas, top with mozzarella and cheddar, and roll up. Arrange seam-side down in the baking dish.
  5. Pour remaining pizza sauce over the rolled enchiladas, then sprinkle with more cheese, pepperoni, and any optional toppings.
  6. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10–15 minutes until bubbly and golden.
  7. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Substitute ground Italian sausage for beef for a spicier flavor.
  • Add sautéed mushrooms, onions, or bell peppers to the filling.
  • Make it more like supreme pizza by sprinkling black olives and green peppers on top.
  • Use low-carb tortillas or zucchini slices for a lighter version.
  • Prepare ahead by assembling but holding off on baking until mealtime.
