Ingredients:

  • 8 small fajita-size flour tortillas
  • 2 tbsp canola oil
  • 1/2 small red onion, diced
  • 1 1/2 lbs ground beef
  • 1 1/2 cups salsa (medium for a spicier taste)
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Cut 5 of the flour tortillas into strips, about 1/2 inches in width and set aside.
  3. Line the bottom of a 9 by 13 casserole dish with the remaining flour tortillas.
  4. Spread an even layer of refried beans over the tortillas.
  5. In a large skillet heat the canola oil over medium high heat. Add the onion and beef to the pan and sauté for about 5 minutes; breaking up the meat with a spoon, until it is no longer pink. Pour off and discard any excess liquid, stir in the salsa.
  6. Spread meat mixture over the refried beans, sprinkle on optional jalapeno peppers.
  7. Top with tortilla strips and sprinkle on cheddar cheese.
  8. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven until cheese has melted, about 10 minutes.
  9. Serve with sour cream, chopped tomatoes, and chopped avocado on the side.
