How to Make Bean And Beef Enchiladas

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Spray a large skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Add the chopped onion and ground beef. Cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
3. Stir in the refried beans, diced tomatoes and green chilies, chili powder, cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
4. Spray a 9x13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
5. Pour 1/2 can of enchilada sauce into the bottom of the pan.
6. Choose your method: Layered or Rolled (see steps below)
7. **Layered Method:** Cut the tortillas into strips. Layer 1/3 of the tortilla strips, 1/2 of the beef and bean mixture, another 1/3 of the tortillas, 1 can of enchilada sauce, the remaining bean mixture, the remaining tortillas, and top with the remaining enchilada sauce.
8. **Rolled Method:** Spoon a generous amount of the beef and bean mixture into the center of each tortilla. Roll tightly to enclose the filling. Place seam-side down in the prepared baking pan.
9. For both methods: Top with shredded cheese.
10. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the enchiladas are heated through.
11. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
