Southwest Tortilla Casserole image

This is a twist on a taco casserole. I love to create in the kitchen. I made this last night, and the family loved it, so I thought I would jot it down while it is still fresh in my mind. This does have a kick to it and I would suggest that if you don't like spicy you can modify to your taste. I hope you enjoy as much as we did.

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 lb ground beef
1 link chorizo sausage
1/2 medium onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning
2 tablespoons Sazon Goya seasoning (optional)
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped (you can remove the seeds for less heat)
salt and pepper
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cheddar cheese soup
1/2 cup milk
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can tomatoes and green chilies, diced
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can black beans
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can corn
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
1 cup monterey jack pepper cheese, grated
1 cup salsa
18 corn tortillas
cooking spray
sour cream
black olives
onion, Chopped
lettuce, Shredded

Steps:

  • preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Remove Chorizo sausage from casing, place in large skillet and saute over med-high heat.
  • Once sausage has started to release fat, add the onion, jalapeno, and garlic.
  • As onions become translucent add the ground beef and cook until browned.
  • drain about 2/3 of the fat from the pan then add taco and Sazon seasonings.
  • Stir to combine and let simmer on low.
  • Empty can of soup into a bowl and add 1/2 the can of milk, mix well, set aside.
  • Heat tortilla on both sides. I used a griddle, but a non stick pan will work as well. Once heated, cut into fourths.
  • spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray. Arrange tortilla pieces to cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Add meat mixture over the tortillas, spread evenly.
  • Now layer the following ingredients: tomatoes, corn, beans, and soup mixture.
  • Arrange a layer of tortilla's to cover casserole.
  • Pour cup of salsa over tortillas just enough to cover.
  • Bake in oven for about 20 minute Then add the shredded cheeses and bake another 10 min, until cheese has melted and is bubbly.
  • I served with chopped onion, chopped black olives, and a dollop of sour cream.

This casserole was not what I expected. It was very dry and the flavors were not very good.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
