Introduction
You can also use the Old El Paso Soft Taco Bake kit but I didn't want to buy it processed, I used the Taco Seasoning recipe from allrecipes and just used regular marble cheddar and tex mex cheddar instead of the fake cheese sauce.I'm sure it would also be good with whole wheat tortillas and you could also substitute for ground turkey.

Ingredients
-
4 Flour Tortillas (medium - 6")
1lb lean Ground beef
taco seasoning (home made or otherwise)
1/4 cup Salsa
165g Marble Cheddar Cheese (about 1.5 cups shredded)
3/4 cup tex-mex cheese blend (shredded)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
1. Brown beef, breaking into dime-size or smaller pieces; drain. Stir in Seasoning Mix, and salsa and some water if mixture is not liquidy enough. Simmer for about 5 minutes.
2. Remove from heat. Stir in about 1/2 cup of the cheese (1/4 cup each) and mix thoroughly until melted.
3. Place 1 Tortilla on bottom of ungreased 9-inch glass or metal pie pan. (I used a ceramic baking dish). Top with some cheese, then about 1/2 cup of the beef mixture then, more cheese. Repeat 3 times
4. Top with remaining Cheese ; spread evenly to cover completely. Bake uncovered about 15 minutes or until heated through. Top with Salsa, sour cream and/or guacamole. Refrigerate leftovers (heat for about 2 minutes in microwave).
