Great Mexican casserole! I used only one pound of ground beef, and added minced garlic instead of garlic powder (we're garlic fiends). Didn't have green chilis, so I dumped in about 1/4 cup medium salsa instead. The bake time was just right - I used a large cake pan (13 x 9) to bake it in. I will make it again, but won't use 2 cans of diced tomatoes - I'll just use one, then I think it will be perfect! Thanks for the recipe.

This is a wonderful dish. I especially like the crust from the soup and milk mixed together. My husband liked it, and he is hard to please. It is especially good on the second day, too!

Easy and Yummy!!!!! I did not have tortillas so I left them out and this was still delicious. If you don't have tortillas and want to make this I would recommend reducing the amount of liquid, to perhaps 4 ounces of tomato sauce or just 1 cup of tomatoes. Definite keeper!!!!!!!!

Made this last night for supper. Oh my goodness, what a delight. My family and guests totally loved this. It was so easy and there were no left-overs. Thanks for a great recipe. I will make this again.
