Tex-Mex Casserole

Kim D.'s Note:

My family loves this quick and easy casserole! This dish is spicy, but you can cut the heat of this dish by using "mild" enchilada sauce.

I made this for the second time and it was as big a hit as it was the first. I used 4 cloves of garlic and Rotel tomatoes. I will make this time and again. Thanks for posting!!

This was okay. Too bland for someone from the South. Tasted like Taco Bell, so the kids liked it. I would drain the beans and use corn tortillas. Maybe even add some crushed tortilla chips for the top layer of tortillas. My top layer was gooey.

Hubby really liked it. Stuned me. He usually says "ok". He said it is a keeper. Thanks for sharing!
