This Cheesy Enchilada Casserole recipe is the perfect way to make a ground beef recipe without using some of your overused old recipes.
This is also one of our more popular dinner recipes and you will see why when you make it.

It is the best casserole recipe to make for picky eaters.
It will have a little bit of what everyone loves between the meat, cheese, and tortillas.
A great taco Tuesday recipe too!
Our family loves pretty much anything Mexican so this has definitely become a go-to recipe during the week.
We get half the way through the week only to realize most of the recipes we made had a Mexican feel to them.
A few sides I like to make with this casserole recipe are either easy Mexican salsa rice, Mexican street corn salad, or a fun Mexican corn dip!

Ingredients Needed For Our Cheesy Enchilada Casserole Recipe:
- Lean ground beef
- Onion
- Salsa
- Black beans
- Italian dressing
- Taco seasoning
- Ground cumin
- Flour tortillas
- Corn
- Sour cream
- Shredded Mexican cheese blend
- Shredded lettuce
- Tomato
- Fresh cilantro
How To Make This Cheesy Enchilada Casserole Recipe:
Begin by preheating the oven to 400 degrees.
Then in a large skillet, brown the ground beef and onion over medium heat until the meat is done, and then drain the meat.

Place the meat back into the pan and add in the salsa, black beans, Italian dressing, sour cream, drained can of corn, taco seasoning, and cumin, and mix it all together.

Then in a 2-quart baking dish add about ⅓ of the seasoned meat mixture.

Next, sprinkle ⅓ of the grated cheese on top and put a layer of tortillas over top.
Once you have completed that layer, spread another ⅓ of the meat mixture over top of the tortillas, along with another ⅓ of the cheese.

Add another layer of tortillas and then repeat the meat and cheese layers.
Spray a piece of tin foil with nonstick cooking spray and then cover the baking dish with the foil and place the dish in the oven for 25 minutes or until the casserole is hot and bubbly.

Once the casserole is done cooking, pull it out and top it off with the lettuce, diced tomato, and fresh cilantro.

Taco Seasoning Recipe
One way I like to make my Mexican recipes feel more “homemade” is by making my own taco seasoning! It might not seem like much, but it actually does add more flavor.
If you want an easy recipe to make your own, take a look at Allrecipes.com and use their Taco Seasoning recipe instead of using a taco seasoning packet.

I just use the cheapest salsa they sell at WalMart. Any salsa that is "chunky" will do! And mild is best if you have kids! :)
I think that would work fine! I wouldn't make them more than a day in advance to avoid them getting soggy.

I think that would work fine! I wouldn't make it more than a day in advance so the tortillas don't get soggy.
I have never tried to freeze it before. I am not sure if it would work because the tortillas might get soggy when it thaws. Let us know how it goes if you try it!
thanks for a very yummy recipe! I follow you guys on Facebook, I'll be checking out more of your recipes. Keep up the good work!
I have never tried it but that is a great idea! I think it would totally work. Let us know if you try it!
