I love anything with tortillas, too, and this is my favorite Mexican casserole now! I had started making this from a source on-line (maybe the original recipe), which used canned tomatoes instead of salsa and mixing it into the meat. I read yours while I was preparing and added pinto beans to my hamb., 16 oz chopped tomatoes, and seasoning. The beans are really good in this. I used the extra large tortillas, so I only needed 2 per layer. The French fried onions added a lot to the flavor, too. The whole family enjoyed. Thanks Lizzybob- Roxygirl
