So I originally had this dish at my sister-in-law's house. I was incredibly impressed and absolutely loved it! So i found the recipe and tried it. The first time wasn't as good, but I've made some alterations and thought I'd share.
Basically this is one of those "throw everything you like in a pan and cook" and it turns out good recipes.
Here's what I do:
1 lb of ground beef or turkey
1 c. ish of medium picante sauce
1/2 c. ish of light sour cream
1 can corn
(1 can black beans...haven't tried it yet, probably would be good)
10 small corn tortillas
1-2 cups of colby jack cheese
cumin, garlic salt and powder, pepper, chili powder, paprika OR a package of taco seasoning
Brown the hamburger. Drain fat. Add about 1/3-2/3 cup of water to the skillet with the meat. Sprinkle heavily with spices or taco seasoning package. Bring to a boil and let simmer 5-10 minutes.
Spray a 9x13 pan with Pam. Spread about 1/4 cup of salsa on the bottom. Slice the tortillas into 1 inch strips. Layer on top of salsa. Layer meat, corn, sour cream, beans (if desired), a small portion of cheese, the majority of the salsa and another layer of tortilla strips. Spread remaining small amount of salsa (like 1/8-1/4 cup) on top of tortillas and cover with any amount of cheese. Cover and cook at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes. Uncover and cook another 10-15 minutes or until melted bubbly.
YUM!!! ole!
