Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet
  • 1 9x 13 Casserole Baking Dish

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ lb ground beef
  • ½ tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder or minced
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder or minced
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon mexican oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional for heat
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 8-10 medium flour tortillas
  • 1 can refried beans
  • 2 - 3 cups shredded cheese
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 4 ounces sour cream
  • 7 ounces green chilies

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • In a large skillet, brown beef over medium heat until browned. Stir in taco seasoning and mix well. Add refried beans and mix until well combined. If the mixture is dry, stir in 1/4 cup beef broth.
  • In a bowl, combine cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and green chilies.
  • Spread half of the sour cream mixture on the bottom of a casserole dish—layer flour tortillas, followed by half of the meat bean mixture and a layer of cheese. Repeat the layers again and then sprinkle cheese on top.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for 5-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly.
  • Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with salsa, guacamole, or a side salad.
