Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Drop the lean ground beef into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble the ground beef well as it cooks.

- Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the pizza sauce, Italian seasoning, ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, and crumbled bacon to the skillet. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
- Lay out the flour tortillas and scoop some of the ground beef mixture down the center of each tortilla.
- Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Roll up the tortillas and place them on the baking sheet.
- Pour the pizza sauce over the rolled-up tortillas. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella on top, followed by the pepperoni slices and crumbled bacon.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the enchiladas until the cheese is fully melted and just starting to brown around the edges, for 20 – 25 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!
