Time 55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound ground beef
¾ cup diced onion
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 (10.75 ounce) cans condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup milk
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chiles
10 (6 inch) flour tortillas, cut in half
1 (16 ounce) package shredded Mexican blend cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard most of the grease. Add onion, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the beef and cook until onion is soft, about 5 more minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Mix condensed soup, milk, sour cream, and green chilies together in a large bowl until well blended. Add beef mixture and stir until incorporated. Transfer just enough beef mixture to cover the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan. Layer with 1/2 of the tortillas, 1/2 of the remaining beef mixture, and 1/2 of the shredded Mexican cheese. Repeat layers once more with remaining tortillas, beef mixture, and cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and cheese is melted, 30 to 45 minutes.

This casserole was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I'll use less cheese next time.

I'm not a fan of sour cream, so I omitted it from the recipe. The casserole was still very good.

I'm a vegetarian so I used black beans instead of beef. The casserole was still very flavorful and delicious.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

This casserole was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.
