my family liked it a lot, i didn't get to eat it because i can't stand to eat red sauce and meat. but i added some mushrooms and red bell pepper as suggested and it was very much enjoyed

These were very good & an easy-fix. I used both sun-dried + garlic w/herbs tortillas & admit to 1 chg. My thinking was that ea wrap would have roughly 1/4 cup cooked onion + 1/4 cup sauce, but only 1 oz grd meat & less than 1 oz cheese. I knew my DH would say "Where is the beef?", so I doubled the grd meat. I know that made them a little less "light", but my grd meat was very lean, DH was happier & next time I will add bulk w/diced bell pepper + mushrooms. I used the microwave rather than oven & got the fold & roll wrong, but DH said he liked these better than spaghetti. Thx for sharing the recipe w/us.

These were good and easy to make. I didn't add the oil when cooking up my onions and garlic, I just cooked them up with the ground beef. I followed the rest of the recipe except I didn't really measure things. Also instead of cooking them in the oven, I cooked them in the microwave as my kids were hungry NOW :) We really enjoyed these and will be making them again.
