Our family loves Mexican food, so this flavorful, satisfying casserole is a favorite. It's nice to have a way to get the taste of burritos and be able to cut servings any size you want. -Joyce Kent, Grand Rapids, Michigan

This was a very good dish. I did add taco seasoning to the meat sauce because it just needed more flavor to us. Other than that, it was great!

My husband and I really enjoyed this! I halved everything and used 3, 10 inch tortillas and layered in a 10 inch pie plate. There was enough for dinner and lunches the next day.

I make this all the time. I make the enchilada sauce according to the package directions (2 cups water per package), which is great b/c I prefer it saucyer. No need to add the garlic or pepper. after the beef is browned, drained and rinsed, I add it back to the pan add 1/3 or the sauce and the refried beans. No need to futts around w/the beans seperately. Sometimes I add chopped green chilies for more flavor. Great w/sour cream and jalapenos. Easy to play around with to make different each time. Enjoy.

I've been making this recipe for years. I saw it in your magazine in1994. My whole family loves it. It's easy and we like the fact that it is a casserole instead of individual burritos. I can understand why it won the contest.
