Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.
- Make the taco meat according the the recipe in my post above (or to package directions if you are using a taco seasoning packet).
- Once the taco meat has been completed, lay 3 tortillas in the bottom of your prepped 9x13 pan, overlapping just enough to cover the bottom of the pan.
- Spread half of the taco meat overtop of the tortillas and cover with 1/3 of the shredded cheddar. Place 3 more tortillas on top of the taco meat/cheese mixture.
- Spread the remaining half of the taco meat overtop of the new layer of tortillas. Cover with 1/3 of the shredded cheddar and top with 3 more tortillas. Use the remaining cheese to cover the top of the last layer of tortillas.
- Place in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese on top has melted and starts to bubble.
- Remove from the oven, cut into squares, and serve immediately with your desired toppings. Imaged: we used lettuce, tomato, salsa, sour cream and taco sauce. A list of suggested toppings is in the post above.
