2 cloves garlic, minced
1 packet taco seasoning
1 cup refried beans
1 (10 oz) can red enchilada sauce

4 large (10-inch) flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese

Instructions
1. Brown ground beef with onion in skillet over medium-high heat. Drain excess grease. Add garlic and taco seasoning, cook 1 minute.
2. Whisk together enchilada sauce, tomato sauce, and beef broth. Pour half into skillet with beef. Add refried beans, stir until combined.
3. Heat tortillas briefly in dry skillet or microwave to make pliable.
4. Spoon meat mixture onto tortillas, top with cheese. Fold sides, roll from bottom up tightly.

Notes
Cool completely before storing. Refrigerate up to 4 days; reheat in oven or air fryer at 350°F.
Microwave works but softens tortilla.
Can assemble ahead and refrigerate 24 hours before baking.
For freezing, wrap individually in foil for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight before baking.
