A couple of you have been kind enough to share some of your favorite recipes, so I thought I would share one of mine. I made it for dinner tonight and it has been one of our families fav's for a while. My Mom introduced me to the recipe and I fell in love with it since I LOVE any kind of Mexican dish! It is pretty easy, you should try it!
Burrito Pie
2 pounds of ground beef
1 onion chopped
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 (2 ounce) can black olives, sliced (I omit these since Brad doesn't like olives)
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chili peppers
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chili peppers
1 (16 ounce) jar taco sauce
2 (16 ounce) cans of refried beans
12 (8 inch) flour tortillas
9 ounces shredded Colby cheese
1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, saute the ground beef for 5 minutes. Add the onion and garlic, and saute for 5 more minutes. Drain any excess fat, if desired. Mix in the olives, green chili peppers, tomatoes with green chili peppers, taco sauce and refried beans. Stir mixture thoroughly, reduce heat to low, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
3. Spread a thin layer of meat mixture in the bottom of a 4 quart casserole dish. Cover with a layer of tortillas followed by more mixture, then a layer of cheese. Repeat tortilla, meat, cheese pattern until all the tortillas are used, topping off with a layer of meat mixture and cheese.
4. Bake for 20-30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheese is slightly brown and bubbly.
-Serve like a pie and garnish with sour cream, salsa, lettuce and tomato. If you dont like spicy foods, just omit the extra can of chilis. Enjoy!
