Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground beef

  • 1 package taco seasoning mix

  • ¼ cup water

  • 1 (28 ounce) can mild enchilada sauce

  • 1 (16 ounce) can refried beans

  • 1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained (Optional)

  • 8 tortillas, cut into 2-inch strips

  • 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease. Add taco seasoning and water; cook and stir until meat is coated, about 5 minutes more. Add enchilada sauce, refried beans, and corn; stir to combine.

  3. Place a layer of tortilla strips in the bottom of a baking dish. Top with a layer of meat mixture, more tortilla strips, and Mexican cheese; repeat layers as necessary. End with a layer of Mexican cheese.

  4. Bake in the oven until cheese is melted and golden, 8 to 10 minutes.

Cook’s Note

The ingredients can be prepared ahead of time, and the casserole can be kept in the freezer for a no-mess meal. I cook it at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 45 to 60 minutes, or if frozen, until warmed through.
