Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium, chopped Onion
• 2 minced Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 8 pieces Low-carb tortillas
• 2 cups Enchilada sauce
• 1 cup, shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 sliced Green onions
• 0.25 cup, chopped Cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat, add chopped onions, and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 8 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the beef with spices.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and add 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce to the beef mixture. Stir to combine, then remove from heat.

Step 7

Spoon about 1/4 cup of the beef mixture onto one edge of each low-carb tortilla and roll it up tightly.

Step 8

Spread 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce evenly over the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Step 9

Place the filled tortillas seam side down in the prepared baking dish.

Step 10

Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 13

Garnish with sliced green onions and chopped cilantro before enjoying.
