Easy Mexican Tortilla Stack

You are gonna love this easy Mexican tortilla stack. It’s like a Mexican lasagna. There is a meat sauce and cheese layered in there. The meat sauce includes ground beef, cream of mushroom soup, enchilada sauce, and diced green chilies. If you don’t want to use ground beef, you can always us a pound of ground turkey of chicken.

Instead of noodles, you use flour tortillas. Instead of ricotta cheese, you have refried beans layered in there. Finally, to finish it all off, you top it with shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, and sour cream.  This has turned into a new familly favorite. It’s a great change from tacos or enchiladas.
