Ground Beef Enchilada Casserole

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

Brown the ground beef with the diced onion and taco seasoning in a large skillet over medium high heat until the beef is browned and the onions are soft (approximately 5-6 minutes).

Step 3

Pour approximately 1/3 of a cup of the enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 9X13 pan.

Step 4

Then layer the tortillas on top of the enchilada sauce.  It’s ok to tear them in half so that they line the bottom of the pan.

Step 5

Then top with approximately half of the beef mixture, approximately 3/4 cup of red enchilada sauce and 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese.

Step 6

Repeat these layers a 2nd time in the casserole pan.

Step 7

Then top with more corn tortillas, the remaining enchilada sauce and the remaining shredded cheese.

Step 8

Cover the pan with foil and bake for 20 minutes.  Uncover the pan and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.

Step 9

Let the casserole sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to sit.  Top with the fresh cilantro. Then cut, serve and enjoy!
