Layered Enchilada Bake

I absolutely love this recipe. It's incredibly easy to toss together, you can make it ahead of time and freeze (great to take to new moms) and it's also easy to take to pot-lucks, just take a bowl of shredded lettuce and some chopped tomatoes for garnish.

Another great thing about this recipe is that you can totally leave out the meat- and noone will really notice! Just add another can of beans!

Layered Enchilada Bake

Recipe from Kraft Foods
Total Time: 1 hr 10 min
Makes: 8 servings

1 lb. lean ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
2 cups TACO BELL® HOME ORIGINALS® Thick 'N Chunky Salsa
1 can (15 oz.) black beans, drained, rinsed
1/4 cup KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing
2 Tbsp. TACO BELL® HOME ORIGINALS® Taco Seasoning Mix
6 flour tortillas (8 inch)
1 cup BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Sour Cream
1 pkg. (8 oz.) KRAFT Mexican Style Shredded Four Cheese

PREHEAT oven to 400ºF. Brown meat with onions in large skillet on medium-high heat; drain. Add salsa, beans, dressing and seasoning mix; mix well.

ARRANGE 3 of the tortillas in single layer on bottom of 13x9-inch baking dish; cover with layers of half each of the meat mixture, sour cream and cheese. Repeat all layers. Cover with foil.

BAKE, covered, 30 min. Remove foil. Bake an additional 10 min. or until casserole is heated through and cheese is melted. Let stand 5 min. before cutting to serve.

**If you are making this to freeze: Line 13x9-inch baking dish with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides of dish. Assemble recipe in prepared dish as directed. Cover with foil. Freeze up to 3 months. When ready to serve, preheat oven to 400ºF. Bake, covered, 1 hour. Remove foil. Bake an additional 15 to 20 min. or until casserole is heated through and cheese is melted. Let stand 5 min. before cutting to serve. To decrease the baking time, thaw casserole in refrigerator overnight, then bake, uncovered, 45 min. or until casserole is heated through and cheese is melted.Serving SuggestionTop with chopped tomatoes, shredded lettuce and cilantro.

**To make this healthier I cut the beef in half and add more beans. I also use whole wheat tortillas, light salad dressing and fat free sour cream.
