Easy Enchilada Casserole

By Hapemom

You can make this layered casserole with ground beef or chicken. Very quick and easy. When you serve, pile high with lettuce, tomato, onion, salsa, etc. I like to serve with toppings in separate bowls, and let everyone add what they want.

Ingredients

• Toppings:
• 1 pound lean ground beef (can substitute cooked chicken, even store-bought rotissiere works well)
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• 2 cans (10-oz) Enchilada Sauce
• 1 package (6-inch) flour tortillas (about 8-10)
• butter
• 2 c. (8-oz) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
• 1/4 c. water
• Sliced green onions
• Shredded lettuce
• Chopped tomatoes
• Chopped onions
• Sour cream
• Salsa

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Brown ground beef with onions and garlic. Drain off fat. Stir in enchilada sauce. Let simmer about 5 minutes.

Thinly spread butter on tortillas. Tear into pieces to cover bottom of 9x11” glass baking dish (butter side down). Layer meat, then cheese. Repeat to make 2-3 layers, ending with cheese layer.

Pour 1/4 c. water around edge of pan.

Bake 20 minutes, or until cheese melted and bubbly. Cool 5 minutes, then cut into squares.
