Is this Beefy Enchilada Casserole worth a try?

In summary, the Beefy Enchilada Casserole is made with ground beef, enchilada sauce, corn tortillas, black beans, diced tomatoes, green chilies, onion, garlic, cumin, chili powder, and shredded cheese. To make it, the ground beef is first browned with onion and garlic, then mixed with the other ingredients and layered with corn tortillas in a baking dish before being topped with cheese and baked. Other types of meat can be used, or the dish can be made vegetarian. It makes about 8 servings and can be made ahead of time and reheated as leftovers.

It's from the 29 minutes to dinner cookbook.

Does it taste like enchiladas? I want to make it because it sounds good but DH doesn't like enchiladas
 
It's good, I make it all the time. I guess it depends on what your husband doesn't like about enchiladas.
 
LOVE this recipe!:thumbup: It's a great show demo, too. It's so quick and easy, it never fails to amaze. I often demo it with the pass around salsa and then use some of the salsa for the dish. I also double the amount of cheese and cut the amount of cilantro back to just a sprinkling. But to answer your question, I don't think it really tastes that much like enchiladas. To me, it's more like a cheesy, soft taco casserole.

I LOVE this recipe too!! I use it for demos quite a bit. And I do the same thing - cut back on the cilantro and add a lot of cheese! No such thing as too much cheese.

DH does not like it. He says he can taste the salsa too much and he doesn't like Salsa. Not sure if that helps you.

I think I'm going to make it anyways and if he doesn't like it he can make himself something else :)
