Amanda's Quick Enchilada Bake



One day I had to make a last minute dish for a potluck after work (which I had forgotten about). I raided my cupboards and fridge and came up with this... now one of my husband's and my favorites! It was a hit at the potluck!

Ingredients:
4-5round soft corn tortillas
1 can of enchilada sauce
1-plus pound of ground beef, cooked and drained
1 jar of Salsa
Shredded cheese (lots of it...probably four cups -- doesn't matter what kind really: cheddar, colby, monterey jack, etc... anything by Kraft or Cabot)

Directions:
Line a 13 by 9 baking dish with the soft corn tortillas. Sprinkle about a cup and a half of the cheese on top of the tortillas and then coat it with a third of the enchilada sauce.

Mix salsa (to taste) with cooked ground beef. Put ground beef in pan. Pour the rest of the enchilada sauce over the ground beef/salsa mix.

Sprinkle two cups (or more) of cheese on top.

Bake at 325 until cheese is melted. Let cool ten minutes. Serve. Serve on paper plates...this is messy.


Note: I've found that our storebrand salsa (Publix) works the best with this dish with the Old El Paso enchilada sauce. Don't worry if it's a little soupy...it should solidify a bit after it's cooled 10 minutes. It also reheats well.

Prep time: 10 minutes

Serves 6 big eaters

Is this nutritious? What have you ever had at a potluck that is! This is loaded with fat, but if you need a yummy meal in a hurry, this is a keeper!
