Layered Mexican Tortilla Pie image

I love Mexican food and I love using a crock-pot to cook something in. Don't have time to stand over a stove watching something cook. LOL Found this recipe and adapted it to be used in a crock-pot.

Categories     Casseroles

Time 3h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 Tbsp canola oil
1/2 c onion, chopped
1 lb ground beef
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin
2 can(s) (11-oz) yellow corn with red and green bell peppers, drained
heavy duty aluminum foil
1 can(s) (16-oz) refried beans
6 (6 inch) flour tortillas
1 2/3 c salsa
2 3/4 c shredded monterey jack cheese
toppings: sour cream, chopped fresh cilantro, shredded monterey jack cheese, fresh salsa, guacamole

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook for 3 minutes or until tender. Stir in beef and next 3 ingredients. Cook until beef is no longer pink.
  • 2. Fold 2 (17x12") sheets of aluminum foil into 2 (17x2) strips. Arrange strips in an "X" pattern in a lightly greased 4 quart round slow cooker, allowing foil to extend 1 inch beyond edges of slow cooker.
  • 3. Spread about 1/3 cup refried beans on 1 side of each of 5 tortillas. Place 1 tortilla, bean side up, atop foil "X" in slow cooker. Spoon 1 cup burger mixture over beans; top with 1/3 cup salsa and 1/2 cup cheese Repeat layers 4 times. Top with remaining tortilla, and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Cover and cook on LOW 3 hours or until cheese melts and edges are bubbly.
  • 4. Remove insert from slow cooker; let stand, uncovered, 15 minutes. Grasping ends of foil strips, carefully transfer pie to a serving plate. Carefully remove foil strips. Cut pie into wedges, and serve with desired toppings. A nice guacamole and tomato salad with some yellow rice goes well with this.

I made this dish for a potluck and it was a huge hit. Everyone loved it! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of tortilla. I used flour tortillas, but I think corn tortillas would be better.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using a milder salsa or chili sauce if you don't like spicy food.

This dish was easy to make and the results were delicious. I made it for my friends and they loved it. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of cheese. I used cheddar cheese, but I think a Monterey Jack cheese would be better.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs. I added a teaspoon of chili powder and a teaspoon of cumin and it was much better.

This recipe was easy to follow and the results were delicious. I made it for my family and they loved it. The only thing I would change is to add more beans. I only used one can of black beans, but I think two cans would be better.
