Burrito Pie

This is a lot like a lasagna, only Mexican-style! Serve

like a pie and garnish with sour cream, salsa, lettuce and

tomato. Make sure you like spicy foods before trying this one.

It's hot! Prep Time: approx. 30 Minutes. Cook Time: approx.

30 Minutes. Ready in: approx. 1 Hour . Makes 16 servings.

2 pounds ground beef

1 onion, chopped

2 teaspoons minced garlic

1 (2 ounce) can black olives, sliced

1 (4 ounce) can diced green

chili peppers

1 (10 ounce) can diced

tomatoes with green chile peppers

1 (16 ounce) jar taco sauce

2 (16 ounce) cans refried beans

12 (8 inch) flour tortillas

9 ounces shredded Colby cheese

Directions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2 In a large skillet over medium heat, saute the ground

beef for 5 minutes. Add the onion and garlic, and saute for

5 more minutes. Drain any excess fat, if desired. Mix in

the olives, green chile peppers, tomatoes with green chile

peppers, taco sauce and refried beans. Stir mixture thoroughly,

reduce heat to low, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.

3 Spread a thin layer of the meat mixture in the bottom

of a 4 quart casserole dish. Cover with a layer of

tortillas followed by more meat mixture, then a layer of cheese.

Repeat tortilla, meat, cheese pattern until all the tortillas

are used, topping off with a layer of meat mixture and cheese.

4 Bake for 20 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or

until cheese is slightly brown and bubbly.
