Taco Casserole
I modified this recipe slightly from a recipe I found online.
Ingredients
- 2 lb hamburger
- 2 pkgs. taco mix
- 1 dozen corn tortillas
- ½ cup flour
- 2 cans tomato sauce (8 oz)
- 3 cups shredded cheddar or mixed cheese
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 3 cups hot water
- 1 can refried beans
- 1 can sliced black olives
- ¾ cup diced onions
- ½ cup of sliced jalapeño peppers
Directions:
Brown hamburger, onion, and garlic; drain. Add flour and taco mix. Stir in water and tomato sauce. Simmer until it thickens (about 5 minutes).
Place 3 tortillas in the bottom of a greased 13×9″ casserole dish. Pour 1/3 of the mixture over them, then add a layer of olives, jalapeños (to your liking), and a layer of cheese. Do this 2 more times, for a total of 3 layers. On one of the layers, spread a layer of refried beans on the tortillas. Top with cheese.
Bake in preheated oven at 350° for 1 hour. Let cool before serving. Serve with sour cream and picante.
