Enchilada Casserole

Here's another home cooked meal play-by-play.  This dish is easy to make and is very good too.  All right let's get cooking.




Cooking Onions
First, pre-heat oven to 300 degrees F.  Next, chop 1 medium onion.  In a pot or pan, heat 1TBSP oil over medium heat and cook onion till tender.



Adding Hamburger
Once onion is tender, add 1lb hamburger and brown hamburger.



Adding Enchilada Suace
After the hamburger is browned, add 1 28oz. can of Enchilada Sauce and stir mixing hamburger and sauce.  Reduce heat and cook to reduce sauce a little. 




Adding Corn Tortilla
After the sauce has reduced a little, add 1 pkg. corn tortilla (cut into 1in. squares).  Stir until tortilla is coated with the sauce.  Do not overcook tortilla.




Putting into Pan
Once the tortilla is all mixed and coated with the sauce, pour all contents into a 9x13 baking pan.




Adding Cheese, Olives, & Green onion
Add grated cheese, sliced olives, and green onions over the tortilla mixture.  Place in oven and bake for 20-30 minutes or until cheese melts.




Finished product
Once cheese has melted, take out of oven and enjoy.  We usually eat this dish with salsa.  You can add sour cream and/or jalapeno peppers if you choose (as condiments).





Ingredients:
1lb ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 28 oz. can enchilada sauce or 2 14oz. cans of enchilada sauce
1 package corn tortilla (cut into 1 inch squares)
1 package grated cheese (mexican blend)
1 small can sliced olives
chopped green onions



This is an easy fast mexican dish that the whole family would enjoy.  Try it out and let me know what you think. 

Overall, I give this Enchilada Casserole dish 4 stars.
