How to make it

- while heating the oil in the pot heats up to temp, saute the onion in a frying pan. when it is cooked for about three minutes add the beef, peppers, cumin, and enchilada sauce.
- simmer stirring occasionally for about 8 - 10 minutes. when the beef has browned use a slotted spoon transfer this mixture into a warm tortilla.
- sprinkle some of the shredded cheese of your choice on the top.

This was awsome. I just made this for my sisters-in-law for when they visited and it was a huge hit. Thanks for the killer post.
