My mom's staple! Easy, and you can make it ahead of time. If you want to spice it up, add jalapeño chilies. Ingredients:
2 lbs ground beef |
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package spaghetti sauce mix |
1 teaspoon seasoning salt |
1 (1 lb) can tomato, cut into bite-sized pieces |
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce |
1/2 cup water |
1 (4 ounce) can green chilies (seeds removed and then chopped or diced) |
8 -10 corn tortillas |
1 1/2 lbs monterey jack cheese, grated |
1 lb ricotta cheese |
2 eggs |
Directions:
1. Brown ground beef until crumbly.
2. Drain fat.
3. Add spaghetti sauce mix, seasoned salt, tomatoes, tomato sauce, water and green chilies; blend thoroughly.
4. Simmer slowly 10 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, combine ricotta and eggs; blend well.
6. Spread mixture evenly on tortilla.
7. Spread 1 cup of meat sauce in 12x8x2-inch baking dish.
8. Place two cheese topped tortillas side by side in the dish.
9. Spread 1/3 cup of meat mixture and 1/3 cup grated cheese over each.
10. (I actually make this a single layer by filling in the areas with tortillas cut in half).
11. Repeat until each stack contains 3-4 layered with meat sauce and cheese.
12. Bake in 350°F oven for 30 minutes.
13. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting.
