# How to Make It:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, until browned. Stir in taco seasoning and red enchilada sauce. Simmer until thickened, then remove from heat.

Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 to 60 seconds until flexible.
