Mexican Casserole Recipes

[vacanut]

Does anyone have a quick, easy Mexican casserole recipe. I'm looking for something with rice, flour tortillas, corn, etc.... That you bake in the oven

No rice, but easy.

Crunch tortila chips in baking dish. Add refried beans, cook hamburg with taco seasoning and onions, and layer on top. Pour a jar of echilada sauce, salsa, taco sauce, or something else red, and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until bubbly at 350. 15 minutes, or so. Chop lettuce for top. I also toss on a can of black olives.

Technically you could add rice.

One of my favorites from RAchel Ray:



Mexican Lasagna Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 pounds ground chicken breast, available in the packaged meats case
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 (14-oz) can stewed tomatoes or fire-roasted chopped tomatoes
1 cup medium heat taco sauce
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained
1 cup frozen corn kernels
Salt
8 (8 inch) spinach flour tortillas, available on dairy aisle of market
2 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar or shredded pepper jack
2 scallions, finely chopped

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Preheat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil – twice around the pan. Add chicken and season with chili powder, cumin, and red onion. Brown the meat, 5 minutes. Add stewed tomatoes or fire-roasted chopped tomatoes and taco sauce. Add black beans and corn. Heat the mixture through, 2 to 3 minutes then season with salt, to your taste. Coat a shallow baking dish with remaining extra-virgin olive oil, about 1 tablespoon oil. Cut the tortillas in half or quarters to make them easy to layer with. Build lasagna in layers of meat and beans, then tortillas, then cheese. Repeat: meat, tortilla, cheese again. Bake lasagna 12 to 15 minutes until cheese is brown and bubbly.


Another is a refried bean pie that is very good. I lost my recipe so the measurements are not exact. I just wing it.

Line a pie plate with a tortilla shell (I use two)
Put 1/2 can refried beans on top
Add some salsa
mix some white rice with some chopped scallions and layer on salsa
add some more salsa
top with the rest of the refries bean
top with some taco cheese ans a tortilla shell and bake about 30 minutes at 350.
