I found a recipe for an Enchilada pie, the more I looked at it, the more I thought, this doesn't look right, and it doesn't have what I want. I wanted the look of a lasagna but the taste of Enchiladas and refried beans. Read more . SO I came up with this recipe, and it hit the spot with the family. Very cheesy and flavorful. Ingredients:
3 1/2 lbs ground beef |
2 small to medium onions, chopped |
3 (.75-1.5oz)pkg taco seasonings |
1 1/2 cup water |
1 (16oz) can fat-free refried beans |
1 cup dairy sour cream |
24 corn tortillas |
1 (28oz) can enchilada sauce, divided |
3-4oz sliced black olives, divided |
5 cups mexican blend shredded cheese, divided(3-1 1/3 cups for layers & 1 cup for top of dish) |
Directions:
1. In a large pan, brown ground beef & onions; drain. Return to pan, add taco seasonings & water, bring to a boil and then simmer for 8-10 minutes. Stirring occasionally.
2. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. In the meantime, mix refried beans and sour cream, set aside.
3. In a large deep 11x13 lasagna pan, spray with a non-stick cooking spray. Spread 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce on to bottom of pan.
4. In a shallow medium size bowl, pour 1/2 a can of enchilada sauce. This will be used to dip and coat both sides of corn tortillas, using 6 tortillas per layer.
5. Assemble & coat 6 corn tortillas, line on the bottom of pan, they will over lap. On top of 1st layer of tortillas, using a slotted spoon, spoon 1/2 of meat mixture evenly, sprinkle with 1 1/3 cups of cheese. Repeat a layer of 6 enchilada coated tortillas. 2nd layer, spread out refried bean mixture evenly, top with 1/2 of black olives, sprinkle 1 1/3 cup of cheese. Repeat with a layer of 6 enchilada coated tortillas. 3rd layer, top with 2nd 1/2 of meat mixture, discard taco sauce used for meat mixture, it's not needed. Sprinkle with 1 1/3 cups of cheese. Repeat with the last 6 enchilada coated tortillas. Spread 2nd 1/2 of canned enchilada sauce over dish and top with remaining cheese and black olives.
6. Cover loosely with foil & baked in pre-heated 375 degree oven for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted & lightly golden brown.
