Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, cook ground beef and diced onion over medium heat until beef is browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
Stir in taco seasoning, garlic powder, cumin, diced tomatoes, black beans, salsa, and enchilada sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.
In a greased 9x13-inch casserole dish, spread a thin layer of the beef mixture.
Place 2 tortillas over the meat mixture, tearing them as needed to cover the surface. Top with 1/3 of the remaining meat mixture and 1/3 of the shredded cheese. Repeat layers two more times, ending with cheese on top.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let cool for 5 minutes before garnishing with fresh cilantro and serving.

Notes

Customize with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, avocado, or jalapeños.
Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
