How to Make Beef Enchiladas

1. Brown 1 lb ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
2. Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 green bell pepper (chopped), 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained), 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies (Rotel), 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder to the skillet. Mix well and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
3. Fill each tortilla with approximately 1/3 cup of the beef mixture.
4. Roll up the tortillas and place them seam-down in a greased 13x9 inch baking dish.
5. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
6. For the sauce: In a separate saucepan, sauté 1/2 medium onion (chopped) and 1/2 green bell pepper (chopped) in 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil until softened.
7. Stir in 1 (10 ounce) can enchilada sauce, 1/2 cup beef broth, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix well.
8. Pour the sauce evenly over the rolled enchiladas in the baking dish.
9. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
10. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese over the enchiladas and bake for an additional 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
