My MAJEK group of friends have been exchanging recipes during COVID. This is one that Kathy shared. It is pretty simple, and very tasty.
- My adaptations: I used a package Impossible Burger to eat lower on the food chain.
- 2-4 T taco seasoning
- I used a 10" pie plate or 8 x 11 casserole dish
- After baking for 20 minutes, topped with more cheese, then returned to oven uncovered for another 5-10 minutes until bubbly.
1 lb ground beef
1 onion small size
1 can tomato sauce 8 oz or 14oz can of diced tomatoes
sliced black olives....sm can may be enough
1-1/2 cup cheddar cheese or more
3/4 cup water
Your favorite Mexican seasoning (Lawrys Taco is good or chili pwd….I used Penzeys Bold Taco) probably a tablespoon or more
6 corn tortillas...butter these
Brown meat and onion....drain.....then add tomato sauce and olives plus seasoning along with some salt and pepper.
Layer the tortillas, meat, and cheese. I end with tortillas on top. Add water around sides. Bake at 400* covered for 20-30 minutes.
Serves 4-6 depending on how hungry you are.
You can have toppings like sour cream, cilantro, etc.
