I used 93% lean ground turkey instead of 90% ground beef + used the entire 1.25 lb package instead of the 1 lb of ground beef called for in the recipe since I didn't want to freeze the extra 1/4 lb by itself. I don’t like Italian dressing so used 1/3 cup v-8 juice instead of ¼ c It dressing. Next time I will boost it to 1/2 or 2/3 c if I use the extra gr. turkey again.

Mine didn't come out NEAR as neat as the picture, and the bottom tortilla's didn't come out until I cleaned the pan, but I will make this again in a wider dish with tortillas on the side.

Made this over the weekend for my hubby. He usually won't try new things but he LOVED this and so did I. It was really easy to make and very delicious, re-heats well too. Next time I'm going to chop up some jalapenos and add to the mixture to give it more spice.

Very good! My whole family loved it and told me repeatedly that I will need to make this again. I did put 3/4 c of the salsa on the bottom of the pan as was suggested and I also stirred in the sour cream with the meat and beans. I loved how easy it was to serve (not having to add salsa or sour cream on the plate).

Great dish. I made a few personal changes (used ground turkey, full taco pack, whole wheat tortillas) but still wonderful. My husband loved it. I also used the meat mixture for tacos one night, and used the remainder to make a smaller casserole for another evening.

My husband absolutely loved this! He usually doesn't say things are good until I ask him what he thinks. This time, he took one bite and said it was really good! I did what some of the other people did, I put some salsa on the bottom of a 9x13 pan. Instead of layering the sour cream I added it into the meat mixture. Much easier to spread around!

Reviewed on Aug. 31, 2010 by richtercory

This was a delicious, filling meal!! I absolutely loved it. I did follow some previous comments of putting some salsa on the bottom to prevent sticking. I used plain yogurt instead of sour cream as I had that in the fridge and mixed it in with the beans and meat. Thank you for the recipe!

Very yummy. My 2 picky eaters (husband & 5yr old) both enjoyed it which makes me happy. Very easy to make. I forgot to cover it when I baked it but it still turned out awesome. Since I like a little more spice to my food I added some hot sauce to my serving, but wouldn't add it to the entire dish...again, I have picky eaters.

Just made this again & WoW it is fantastic! I did some modifications this time to try some new things out. This recipe is great as is but the additions were nice & changed it up a little. I added 1 C. frozen corn to the meat/onions in the pan. I added 4 cloves garlic chopped to the pan towards the end of cooking. I used 2 C. Tostitos Mild Chunky Salsa (used a small amount to coat bottom of baking dish to prevent sticking which worked great). I used 2 cans black beans. Used 1 C. lite sour cream which I added to the meat mixture once it was done instead of using it as a layer. I used 1/2 C. Zesty Italian dressing (Kraft). Used 8 flour tortillas instead of 6 & put it all in a 9X13 baking pan. I used 8 oz. authenic mexican cheese blend already pre-shredded & more cilantro because we love it! This is again AMAZING & would be great for any family meal or potluck. I would precut it for a potluck though. Cut with sharp knife first otherwise it will fall apart. Fantastic!!

Reviewed on Jul. 01, 2010 by Nicolelovesfood

Wow, that was incredible! My kids absolutely loved it! It was all gone in a flash! I used a little bit of salsa to put on the bottom of the dish to prevent the bottom tortillas from getting too hard like some reviews had said. It worked fantastic. Just a small layer to coat/cover dish. Also I mixed the sour cream in the meat/bean mixture instead of layering it because my kids don't like sour cream unless it is mixed in things. They loved it! We used Tostitos mild chunky salsa & Kraft zesty Italian dressing. This is a family favorite now!!

I didn't have Italian dressing so I used the Red Wine Vinaigrette that I had. Put a whole pack to taco seasoning. Substituted the black beans with corn. Hubby don't like sour cream so I added it to mine at the end. Very good. Will definitely make it again.

I made this for dinner tonight. My kids could not stop raving about it. I made some changes to the recipe, used ground turkey, used 1 cup of salsa and 1 can of rotei diced tomatoes with green chilies. Didn't add the sour cream in(kids are not fans of sour cream), but I added on top with the lettuce and tomatoes for myself. Great Dish!!

Reviewed on Jun. 09, 2010 by jayma71

This is a great recipe for all ages! The only change I made was to use an 8 oz bottle of mild picante sauce instead of the salsa. (My kids don't like the "chunks") I spread a little sauce on the bottom of the pan before placing the tortillas. This prevented sticking and hardness mentioned by others, and also kept the casserole from being runny. I will definitely make again!

This recipe hit the spot! We were in the mood for mexican food but didn't want to make tacos, so I tried this. It turned out great.

Even my 1 year old liked it and I wasn't sure if he would because it's pretty spicy!

Very tasty, but the bottom tortilla was very hard. I let it sit for 10 minutes before we cut it and it still oozed all over the place. Did not turn out well....maybe my salsa was too watery, I'm not sure, but we couldn't even save it for leftovers; it was too runny.

I have been making this for years. I have learned to just mix the hamb, sour cream, salsa, black beans and zesty italian dressing together. Then layer with flour or corn shells and cheese.

One other thing........I was tempted to leave out the Italian dressing after reading another review but went ahead since I wanted to give the recipe a chance. I wouldn't change a thing as far as the dressing is concerned. We couldn't tell it was in there at all. Follow the recipe and you will be delighted with the results.

This was so good, and even great heated up the next day for leftovers! I didn't go the low-fat, reduced sodium way and added a bit more sour cream. One addition I made was to mash up an avocado and spread it on the first layer of sour cream before the second layer of ingredients. Quick & easy so I am sure it will become a regular at our house. I let it set about 10 - 15 minutes before cutting it and the pieces came out perfectly!

Loved it! However, I did what several other reviewers suggested and used corn tortillas instead. To keep the tortillas soft versus "grainy", I cooked them in a little canola oil for about 15 seconds each and drained on paper towels. (I know this totally added to the calories, but we don't like the flour tortillas because they become soggy) I did use more cheese - probably closer to 2 cups (jalapeño jack and cheddar). Other than the extra cheese and corn tortillas, I followed the recipe exactly as written. I have to say that I always viewed lettuce and tomatoes on these types of casseroles as "optional & pretty garnish", but it is a must for this casserole! Almost tastes like a taco salad. Thanks so much for the recipe; I was REALLY tired of making the same old ones I've been making forever!
