Ingredients

1 pound ground beef

2 cups enchilada sauce

14 ounces cheese tortellini

1 cup shredded cheese blend

1 teaspoon olive oil

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 pinch salt

1 pinch black pepper

2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

Directions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add ground beef, cooking until browned and crumbled, about 5-7 minutes.

Drain excess fat from the skillet, then stir in enchilada sauce, ground cumin, and garlic powder, mixing well to coat the beef.

Bring the mixture to a simmer, allowing the flavors to meld together for about 5 minutes, while stirring occasionally.

In a separate pot, cook the cheese tortellini according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.

Add cooked tortellini to the beef and enchilada sauce mixture, stirring gently to combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Sprinkle shredded cheese blend over the top, cover, and cook until the cheese is melted, approximately 3 more minutes.

Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving. Serve hot, optionally with fresh lime wedges on the side.
