Alane’s Enchilada Casserole

Course: Casserole, Main Dishes
1st Gen Author: Alane Watkins

Ingredients

  • 1 pound meat I have used left over roast, hamburger and chicken. Chicken is my favorite.
  • 1 can beans I have used refried, black and great northern.
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • ¾ cup salsa
  • 1 can corn can also use frozen
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 3 tbsp chopped garlic
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • chili powder to taste can also use taco seasoning
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 can cream soup cream of mushroom, cream of chicken, etc
  • flour tortillas
  • shredded cheese

Instructions

  • Brown meat, onion and garlic in a skillet until meat is cooked thoroughly.
  • Drain beans and corn and add to meat. Add tomatoes, salsa and seasonings. 
  • Butter 9 x 13 pan and line with flour tortillas, top with meat mixture.  Top the entire casserole with tortillas (looks a bit like a meat pie.  I have also added an extra layer of tortillas and cheese in the center of the casserole). 
  • Mix together creamed soup and sour cream.  Frost the casserole with sour cream mixture and top generously with shredded cheese. 
  • Bake in a 350 oven for about 20 minutes or until heated through and the cheese is bubbly.

Notes

This was one of our “Last Suppers” which is what I dubbed the leftover night when I used up whatever ingredients we had in the fridge.  That is why I don’t specify what sort of meat or soup.  I used whatever I had left over. The casserole is good with any kind of meat.  I also have added other vegetables like peppers, celery, zucchini or whatever else I have.
