Enchalada Cassarole

I also wanted to try my hand at making healthier homemade refried beans I got the recipe from here. They turned out quite well though I could have let the beans cook for a half hour longer than I did before trying the recipe.



So I put it all together to make an enchilada recipe. I adapted my own recipe from an idea I found in one of the Taste of Home Magazines. But, because I didn't have all the items it asked for and some of them I did have many of my family members wouldn't eat, I recreated it to get something I think is just as good.



2 lbs Ground Turkey, Beef, or Pork (I used the Taco Seasoned Ground Turkey that walmart has been selling for a dollar a lb.)

2 lbs Mexican fancy cheese

3/4 cups sour cream

6 tortillas (Homemade or store bought, mine was home made)

1 cup frozen corn, cooked to the point of no longer being frozen

1 red onion, chopped

16 oz tomato sauce

Refried beans (how ever much the refried bean recipe makes for you.)

Head of Lettuce

1 Tomato



Cook the ground meat and onions together, mix in the corn, tomato sauce and refried beans

put a layer of tortillas in the bottom of a 13x9 inch casserole dish cover with the meat mixture. Top with a layer of sour cream and cheese then repeat.



Bake at 425 until the cheese is melted. Top with shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes



If you have meat filling left over that won't fit into your casserole dish then make another in a different dish until its all gone. I made 1 large one and 1 smaller one.
