Brown ground beef along with onion and garlic. Drain grease off and season with adobo powder and ground pepper. Pour in half a can of enchilada sauce.

Pour 1 can of enchilada sauce into a shallow dish. Dip corn tortillas one at a time, covering both sides with sauce.
Step 3

Place 1/2 cup of beef mixture into the center of each tortilla and roll up. Place seam side down into a 9x13 baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray or lightly greased.

Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes. Uncover and pour remaining enchilada sauce over enchiladas and top with Mexican cheese. Bake uncovered for another 10 minutes or until cheese is nice and melted.

Garnish with cilantro, green onion, black olives and a dollop of sour cream if desired. Serve with beans, rice and/or corn.
