Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup water
- 8 large flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 (10 oz) can red enchilada sauce

Instructions
- Brown the ground beef and onion in a skillet over medium heat. Drain any excess fat.
- Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer for 5 minutes until the liquid reduces slightly.

- Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the burritos.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the sauce.
- Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes
- You can substitute ground turkey or shredded chicken for the ground beef.
- For extra flavor, add a dash of cumin to the meat mixture.
