Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 (6 inch) corn tortillas
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
16 ounces cottage cheese, pureed
1 large egg, beaten
2 cups shredded colby-monterey jack cheese, divided
1/2 cup sliced olive

Steps:

  • Cut each tortilla into 2 or 3 pieces; set aside.
  • Brown ground beef in a large skillet until crumbly; drain fat.
  • Add seasonings, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and green chiles to the skillet; stir and bring to a boil; reduce heat and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Combine cottage cheese, egg, and 1 1/3 cups of the shredded cheese in a separate bowl.
  • In a lightly greased 9x13" baking pan, spread (in layers) half of the meat mixture, then half of the tortilla pieces, and then half of the cheese mixture; repeat the layers, ending with cheese mixture; sprinkle remaining 2/3 cup shredded cheese and sliced olives over top.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20-30 minutes or until hot and bubbly around edges; remove from oven and let stand 5-10 minutes before cutting into serving portions.
  • NOTE: The cottage cheese may be left unpureed or may be replaced with a cup of ricotta cheese.
