Brown ground beef with riced cauliflower, chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt along with water; about 7 to 10 minutes.
Add half the sauce to the browned beef mixture. Wrap 1/8 of the mixture into 2 overlapping slices of chicken to form a longer roll. Repeat to make one roll per serving.
Place beef-stuffed rolls into a casserole pan and sprinkle with half the cheese. Pour enchilada sauce on top and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cheese has melted on top.
