2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
14 -
3 ounces pepperoni slices

1 ounce bacon, crumbled
# Steps:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish and set aside.
02 -
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon, until evenly browned and fully cooked.
03 -
Add diced onion, green bell pepper, and chopped pepperoni to the skillet. Sauté until vegetables are softened and pepperoni begins to render, about 5 to 7 minutes.
04 -
Stir in chopped garlic and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant. Remove skillet from heat to prevent burning the garlic.
05 -
Add pizza sauce, Italian seasoning, ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, and 1.5 ounces crumbled bacon to the beef mixture. Mix thoroughly until creamy and evenly combined.
06 -
Lay each flour tortilla flat and spoon filling along the center. Roll up tightly and set seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
07 -
Pour remaining pizza sauce evenly over the enchiladas. Top with shredded mozzarella, arrange pepperoni slices, and sprinkle 1 ounce crumbled bacon across the surface.
08 -
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and golden brown around the edges.
09 -
Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving to help the filling set for clean slices.
# Notes:
01 -
Ensure tortillas are placed seam-side down to prevent them from opening during baking.
