A fun and flavorful mash-up of pizza and enchiladas, filled with seasoned ground beef, pepperoni, marinara, and gooey cheese, all wrapped in tortillas and baked to saucy, cheesy perfection.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni (plus extra for topping)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 cups marinara or pizza sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 8 flour or corn tortillas
- 1 tbsp olive oil (optional)

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
