Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground Italian sausage, cooked and drained
  • 1/2 cup chopped pepperoni
  • 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 10-12 flour tortillas 6-inch size
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • Cooking spray

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Spoon
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons
  • Oven
  • knife
  • cutting board

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, pizza sauce, pepperoni, green bell pepper, onion, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Mix everything together until it's well combined.
  5. Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface.
  6. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the sausage mixture onto the center of the tortilla.
  7. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of mozzarella cheese over the filling.
  8. Roll the tortilla up tightly and place it seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
  9. Repeat steps with the remaining tortillas and filling, arranging them snugly in the baking dish.
  10. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the enchiladas.
  11. Spray the top of the enchiladas lightly with cooking spray.
  12. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the enchiladas are heated through.
  13. Let the enchiladas cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Don't overfill the tortillas to prevent bursting. Warm the tortillas slightly in the microwave to make them more pliable. Place enchiladas seam-side down to keep them closed. Customize the sauce with pesto or hot sauce. Assemble ahead of time and refrigerate, adding 5-10 minutes to baking time. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes.
