Introduction

This is from the "Fix-It and Forget- It Cookbook". I just tried it tonight and loved it. The recipe calls for 6 tortillas, but I have a large crock pot and only used 3 tortilla's (1 1/2 in each layer). It also said to do 3 layers, but I only did 2. I put the nutrition in with 3 10 inch tortilla's. I also put the nutrition in with ground turkey instead of beef. This is from the "Fix-It and Forget- It Cookbook".

    Good
    This was good. I also had it start to dry out, and since we like spicy, would probably add some diced green chilies or something. Definitely worth another chance! - 11/20/08

    it was a bit on the dry side but that isn't something that can't be fixed with next try. I will try to make it again. ;) thanks! - 11/11/08

    I found a another similar recipe with salsa in it. We actually liked it even better- less dry. I used the medium salsa for more spiciness.
