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

Ingredients

  • 2 packages (1-1/2 ounces each) enchilada sauce mix
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 can (12 ounces) tomato paste
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 9 large flour tortillas (9 inch)
  • 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese or Mexican cheese blend
  • 1 can (16 ounces) refried beans, warmed
  • Optional: Taco sauce, sour cream, chile peppers, chopped onion and guacamole

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine the first 6 ingredients; simmer for 15-20 minutes.

Spread refried beans over tortillas; top with remaining meat. Sprinkle with 1-1/2 cups of cheese. Layer remaining tortillas; top with the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup cheese.
  4. Bake, uncovered, at 350° until heated through, 35-40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting. Serve with optional ingredients as desired.
