tortilla casserole


being surrounded by all this yummy new mexican food make me want to learn how to cook it all so i can eat it all. this recipe is similar to the one i got from russell for the green chile casserole. ryan said it taste like hamburger helper (after he scarfed down half of it) but i beg to differ. this recipe is big serving but i cut it in half cuz only ryan and i were gonna eat it.
6 flour tortillas, burrito size 1 pt. container sour cream 2 lb. ground beef 1 lg. onion 2 (8 oz.) cans tomato sauce 2 (10 3/4 oz.) cans enchilada sauce 1 can black olives, chopped 1 lb. cheddar cheese, grated 1 lb. jack cheese, grated Brown meat and onion. Make 3 layers of tortillas with sour cream and spread on each tortilla, 2 to each layer. Place a layer in a deep 13 x 9 inch pan. Spoon 1/3 of the meat and onion mixture, 1/3 olives, 1/3 each cheese on layer. Repeat 2 more layers. Mix 2 sauces together and spoon over top of layers. Cover with foil. bake 250 degrees for 2 hours.

i cut out the olives because ryan hates them but i topped mine with some. i also added jalapenos for some extra spice.
