Taco Casserole

(not my picture, but it looks a lot like it)

I'm still not quite sure what the name of this one is, but here ya go... this is from my mom.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

Ingredients:
1 package of Lawry's Enchilada Sauce - prepared
12 corn tortillas
1 lb ground beef - prepare taco meat
2 cans rinsed & drained black beans
3 cups shredded cheese

Prepare 1 package (1.62 oz.) LAWRY'S SPICES & SEASONINGS FOR ENCHILADA SAUCE according to package directions.

In 13x9x2-inch baking dish,

layer 1 cup of the 3 1/2 cups ENCHILADA SAUCE,

6 MISSION CORN TORTILLAS,

half of the prepared TACO MEAT,

1 of 2 cans (15 oz.) rinsed and drained BLACK BEANS,

and 1 of 3 cups shredded CHEDDAR CHEESE.

Repeat the layer once more - sauce, torlillas, taco meat, black beans, and cheddar cheese.

Top with remaining 1 1/2 cups enchilada sauce,

6 tortillas,

and 1 cup shredded cheese.

Bake, uncovered, in 350 degree oven 35 to 40 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

You can use refried beans instead of black beans. I also put diced onions (the long skinny ones) and cut up black olives on top. You can also use those little cans of mild diced peppers on it. You can also use the can prepared enchilada sauce but it has a different flavor.
