Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 lb. lean ground beef
  • 1/2 large onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 1/2 cups enchilada sauce
  • 12 to 15 small corn tortillas
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 cups microbial-rennet colby jack cheese, shredded
  • avocado, sliced
  • tomato, diced
  • sour cream
  • cilantro, chopped
  • black olives, sliced

Instructions

  1. Brown Meat: Combine the ground beef, onion and garlic in a skillet over medium high heat and cook until no longer pink, crumbling the meat with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess fat and return skillet to stove top.
  2. Simmer: Add in the enchilada sauce and let simmer about 10 minutes.
  3. Fry Tortillas: Heat another skillet over medium high heat and add the vegetable oil. Fry the corn tortillas for about 1 minute per side until lightly golden brown. Remove from skillet and drain on a paper towel lined plate.
  4. Assemble: Scoop some of the meat mixture onto the tortilla and sprinkle with the shredded cheese. Top with any additional topping you’d like and enjoy!

Notes

If using canned enchilada sauce, add 1 tbsp of chili powder, 1 tsp ground cumin and 1 tsp garlic salt when adding the sauce to the ground beef mixture. Stir and let simmer.
