Seasoning is key. Enchilada sauce coats everything in flavor. Ground cumin adds warmth, while chili powder gives it a bit of heat. Together, they create a well-rounded taste that makes these enchiladas hard to resist.

Assembling and Baking the Enchiladas

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

3. In a baking dish, spread a small amount of enchilada sauce on the bottom.

4. Take a tortilla and spoon about ¼ cup of the beef mixture onto it.

5. Sprinkle with cheese, then roll it up. Place it seam-side down in the baking dish.
