Okay, this casserole is AWESOME! The best part is you can make it in less than 30 minutes! The recipe comes from Pampered Chef's 29 Minutes to Dinner.
1lb ground beef- lean if you want so you don't have to drain it
1tbsp Southwest Season Mix (this is PC seasoning but you can sub taco seasoning)
1 can enchilada sauce (I use mild but you can use spicier if you like)
3/4 cup water (I leave this out and add extra salsa)
1/2 cup medium thick and chunky salsa (you really need the thick and chunky!)
12 yellow corn tortillas (do not use flour, it will not work well)
1/4 cup snipped fresh cilantro
1 cup shredded Colby and Monterey Jack cheese blend (more if you like it cheesy)
Sour cream and lime wedges optional
Okay, this is how easy it is:
Put your beef and taco seasoning in a pan and brown it while chopping into little pieces (PC's Mix-n-chop works great for this step). while your beef is cooking take your corn tortillas and stack them about 6 high and cut into 1 inch strips. Grate your cheese and snip your cilantro.
Once your beef is done, drain it if you need to then add the enchilada sauce, water, salsa to the pan and let it simmer then remove it from the heat. Take 1/2 of your tortilla strips and layer the bottom of a microwavable deep dish baker. Put 1/2 the meat mixture on, then 1/2 the cheese and 1/2 the cilantro and repeat.
Stick it inthe microwave for about 5 minutes.
That's it! The serve it w/ sour cream and lime if you choose.
I hope you like it.
