Recipe
2 lbs ground beef
2 pkgs taco or chili seasoning
20 oz picante sauce
1 can diced tomatoes w/green chilies
8-10 taco sized corn or flour tortillas
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 can fat-free refried beans
1 can whole kernel corn, drained
1 can black beans, drained & rinsed
2 cups shredded cheese—cheddar, pepper jack, Monterrey, etc. and blend desired
- Brown and drain excess fat from ground beef then add 1 pkg seasoning. Combine 1 pkg seasoning with cream cheese and refried beans. Combine corn and beans in a small bowl. Combine picante sauce and diced tomatoes in another bowl. Spray inside slow cooker with cooking spray or lightly oil.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons of cream cheese mixture on one side of 2 tortillas and lay in the cooker. Tear or cut another tortilla to fill the open areas and spread cream cheese mixture on each piece.
- Spoon on enough ground beef to cover the tortillas.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons of corn and beans over the beef.
- Spoon on enough tomato mixture to cover beef.
- Sprinkle cheese to cover tomato mixture.
Repeat steps 2-6 until ingredients are gone. End final layer with tortillas then cheese.
Cook 3 hours on high or 5 hours on low. Cheese will be melted and bubbly and all will be heated through. Serve with sour cream, ranch dressing, tortilla chips, chopped cilantro/green onions, etc.
