Ingredients

• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• ¼ medium onion, finely chopped
• 1 ¼ cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
• ½ cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon dried parsley
• 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 ½ cups enchilada sauce
• 1 ½ teaspoons chili powder
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 8 flour tortillas
• 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 (4 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained

Instructions

1. Step 1: Gather ingredients and preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease sides and bottom of a casserole dish.
2. Step 2: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef and onion until browned and crumbly, 5 – 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
3. Step 3: Stir in 1 cup Cheddar cheese, sour cream, parsley, taco seasoning, oregano, and black pepper until cheese is melted. Mix in enchilada sauce, chili powder, garlic, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
4. Step 4: Lay a tortilla on a work surface and spoon about ¼ cup meat sauce down the center. Top with 1 tablespoon black beans and a sprinkling of black olives. Roll up tortilla and place seam-side down in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
5. Step 5: Spoon remaining meat sauce over the rolled tortillas. Scatter any remaining black beans and olives on top. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup Cheddar cheese.
6. Step 6: Bake until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling, 20 – 22 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
7. Step 7: Serve hot and enjoy!
