Steps:
- Stir the chili and tomato sauce together in a mixing bowl.
- Take an 8"x8" microwave safe pan (you will need a 9"x9" pan if using the soft taco sized tortillas) and put a large spoonful of the chili mixture in the bottom of the pan. Add a tortilla on top. Place more chili mixture on the tortilla and spread it around. Sprinkle cheese on top. Add another tortilla on top and repeat with chili mixture and cheese and repeat this process until you are out of the chili mixture. You should get at least 8 layers. Take some leftover cheese and sprinkle it on top of the last tortilla.
- Cover and place in the refrigerator and let sit for at least 3 hours. If you can leave it over night that is best and allows the flavor to really come through.
- Prior to cooking take the pan out of the refrigerator and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. Place 4 toothpicks in the top so they are sticking out. Cover with parchment paper. The toothpicks will keep it from resting directly on the top tortilla.
- Heat in the microwave for 5 minutes at a time. Let sit for 2 minutes each time. It should take 15-20 minutes or 3 or 4 times in the microwave. You want the cheese melted and the casserole hot. Serve while hot. Makes great leftovers.
