Ingredients
  

1 pound ground beef

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 packet (1 oz) taco seasoning

1 cup beef broth

1 can (10 oz) red enchilada sauce

1 package (12 oz) cheese-filled tortellini

1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Cook the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Once cooked, drain excess grease. Add diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking until the onion is translucent.

    Season the Mixture: Stir in the taco seasoning, followed by the beef broth and red enchilada sauce. Bring to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

      Prepare the Tortellini: While the beef mixture heats, cook the cheese tortellini according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

        Combine Ingredients: In the skillet with the beef mixture, add the corn kernels and cooked tortellini. Stir until well combined, allowing the corn to heat through.

          Add Cheeses and Sour Cream: Lower the heat and swirl in the shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, along with the sour cream. Stir until the cheeses melt and create a creamy, cheesy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Serve: Spoon the cheesy beef enchilada tortellini into bowls or plates. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro for a pop of color and flavor.

              Enjoy: Serve hot as a comforting meal for family or friends and enjoy a delightful twist on classic flavors!
