Enchilada Casserole

9 corn or flour tortillas, torn in about 1/8ths and put in 3 piles of 3 each
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 c. grated cheddar cheese
1 large can enchilada sauce

optional:
refried beans
tomatoes
chili peppers
green bell peppers
olives
sour cream
quacamole


Brown meat and onion and drain well. In a greased 13" X 9" baking pan, pour in about 3 or 4 Tb. enchilada sauce (just enough to coat the bottom of the pan). Put in one pile of tortillas, spreading evenly. Spread on top: 1/2 the meat mixture, 1/2 the cheese, 1/2 the optionals (save the sour cream and quacamole for after baking).

Spread another layer of tortillas. Pour on top 1/2 the remainder of the sauce. Spread the rest of the meat, cheese, and optionals. Spread the last pile of tortillas and top with the rest of the sauce. More cheese may be put on top, if you wish. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes.
