Steps:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with diced onions and garlic, breaking up the beef with a spoon as it cooks. Cook until no longer pink. Drain any excess grease.
- Sprinkle taco seasoning and cumin over the beef and stir in ¼ cup of water. Continue to cook, stirring often, until water is absorbed.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Pour ½ a cup of enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish and spread evenly.
- Heat remaining sauce in a small skillet, just until bubbly, then remove from heat. Wrap a stack of 10 corn tortillas in a clean kitchen towel and microwave on high for 30 seconds to a minute. Dip a tortilla in the enchilada sauce to coat both sides then lay flat on a cutting board or plate. Add a small amount of the meat mixture (about 3 tablespoons) down the center of the tortilla, then top with about 1-2 tablespoons of shredded cheese. Roll up both sides and place seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and meat.
- Pour remaining sauce over the enchiladas evenly and top with remaining shredded cheese. Feel free to add more or less cheese based on your preferences. Sprinkle sliced green onion on top.
- Bake uncovered for 20-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbly. Let sit 5 minutes before serving. Garnish as desired with optional toppings like sour cream, pico de gallo, avocado, sliced green onions or cilantro.

Tips:
- Choose the right ground beef: For the best flavor, use a ground beef that is at least 80% lean.
- Don't overcook the ground beef: Overcooked ground beef will be tough and dry. Cook it just until it is browned and no longer pink in the center.
- Use a homemade enchilada sauce: A homemade enchilada sauce will give your enchiladas the best flavor. If you don't have time to make your own, you can use a store-bought sauce, but be sure to choose one that is flavorful and not too bland.
- Don't overfill the enchiladas: Overfilled enchiladas will be difficult to roll and will fall apart easily. Fill them just enough so that they are snugly packed.
- Bake the enchiladas until they are bubbly and hot: This will ensure that they are cooked through and that the cheese is melted and gooey.
- Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include sour cream, guacamole, Pico de Gallo, and shredded cheese.
