Categories: Casserole-one dish meal

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 2 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp dried minced garlic
• 1/2 tsp oregano
• 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
• 16 oz tomato sauce
• 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 can (8 3/4 oz) whole kernel corn, undrained
• 1 can (4 1/2 oz) green chilies, undrained
• 6 flour tortillas (8 inch size)
• 2 cups shredded Cheddar Cheese

Directions

1. Brown beef and onion in a large skillet on medium-high. Add tomato sauce, beans, corn and green chilies. Mix well. Stir in all of the spices except the red pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat low and simmer 5 minutes. Add red pepper to taste if desired.

2. Spread 1/2 cup of the beef mixture on bottom of 9X13 pan (sprayed with pam). I like to use the foil pans for freezer meals. Top with 3 of the tortillas, overlapping as needed. Layer with 1/2 of the remaining beef mixture and 1/2 of the cheese. Repeat with remaining tortillas, beef and cheese.

3. Double wrap with heavy duty foil and label.

4. Cooking Instructions: Thaw and bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until heated through. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

5. sour cream or Guacamole if desired.
