INGREDIENTS

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 (16 oz) can refried beans
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 1/2 cup water
• 6 8-inch flour tortillas
• 2 cups Mexican cheese, grated

For topping:

• Sour cream
• Black olives
• Iceberg lettuce, chopped
• Tomatoes, chopped

PREPARATION

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and spray an 8-inch springform pan with nonstick spray.
2. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and drain, if needed. Add in the refried beans, taco seasoning, and water, and simmer until most liquid has absorbed, about 5 minutes.
3. Line the bottom of the prepared pan with a tortilla. Spread 1/5 of the beef mixture evenly over the tortilla and top with 1/4 cup of the cheese. Repeat layers – tortilla, beef, cheese – ending with a tortilla on top.
4. Sprinkle remaining cheese over the top and bake until cheese is melted and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
5. Let cool 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve with toppings if desired. Enjoy!
