This fun, Southwest-style main dish features an easy tortilla crust and a hearty filling. “The amount of seasoning is just right for us,” notes Ruth Aden of Polson, Montana. “Make it once with my amounts, then spice it up if needed.”
Ingredients:
1/3 pound ground beef
3 tablespoons chopped onion
3/4 cup stewed tomatoes, chopped
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon chili powder
dash salt and pepper
2 flour tortillas (6 inches)
2/3 cup shredded monterey jack cheese
2 tablespoons sliced ripe olives, drained
Directions:
1. In a small skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the tomatoes, garlic powder, chili powder, salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
2. Place one tortilla in a 3-cup round baking dish coated with cooking spray. Top with half of the meat mixture and cheese; repeat layers. Sprinkle with olives. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 2 servings.
