These Pizza Enchiladas combine the flavors of classic pizza with the convenience of enchiladas, featuring a filling of seasoned ground beef, pepperoni, and cheese, topped with pizza sauce and mozzarella.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 cup yellow onion, diced
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
  • 3 ounces pepperoni, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
  • 1/3 cup pizza sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a baking sheet.
  2. Cook ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until no pink remains.
  3. Add diced onion, bell pepper, and chopped pepperoni to the skillet. Cook for 5–7 minutes until vegetables soften.
  4. Stir in chopped garlic and cook 2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/3 cup pizza sauce, Italian seasoning, ricotta cheese, 1 cup shredded mozzarella, and 1/3 cup crumbled bacon until well combined.
  6. Spoon the mixture evenly onto each flour tortilla, then roll up tightly.
  7. Place rolled tortillas seam-side down on the greased baking sheet.
  8. Pour 2 cups pizza sauce evenly over the enchiladas.
  9. Top with 2 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella, pepperoni slices, and 1/4 cup crumbled bacon.
  10. Bake for 20–25 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  11. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Use lean ground beef to reduce grease; substitute turkey pepperoni for a lighter option; cover enchiladas with foil if baking longer than 25 minutes to prevent over-browning.
