# What You'll Need:

→ Filling

01 - 1 pound lean ground beef
02 - 1 cup diced yellow onion
03 - 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
04 - 3 ounces pepperoni, chopped
05 - 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
06 - 1/3 cup pizza sauce
07 - 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
08 - 1 cup ricotta cheese
09 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
10 - 1/3 cup crumbled bacon
11 - 8 large flour tortillas

→ Topping

12 - 2 cups pizza sauce
13 - 2 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
14 - 3 ounces pepperoni slices
15 - 1/4 cup crumbled bacon

# Directions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
02 - Add the lean ground beef to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Use a spatula to break the beef into small pieces as it cooks.
03 - Once the beef is fully browned, add the diced onions, diced green bell pepper, and chopped pepperoni. Stir and cook until the vegetables are softened.
04 - Stir in the chopped garlic and continue cooking for 2 minutes to blend the flavors.
05 - Remove the skillet from heat. Fold in the pizza sauce, Italian seasoning, ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, and crumbled bacon. Stir until the mixture is evenly combined.
06 - Arrange the flour tortillas on a flat surface. Distribute the beef mixture evenly down the center of each tortilla, then roll them up tightly.
07 - Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down on the sheet.
08 - Pour the pizza sauce evenly over the tortillas. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella, pepperoni slices, and crumbled bacon.
09 - Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and edges are beginning to brown.
10 - Remove from the oven and serve the enchiladas warm.

# Notes:

01 - Ensure the tortillas are rolled tightly to keep the filling enclosed during baking.
