Ingredients

  • 8 servings
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 can (15 ounces) Ranch Style beans, drained
  • 1 can (10 ounces) rotel tomatoes mild, drained
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded colby jack cheese
  • 8 flour tortillas
  • 1 can (15 ounces) red enchilada sauce

Directions

  1. Cook beef over medium heat until done; drain. Meanwhile saute onion and bell pepper in oil until tender. Add onion and pepper to beef. Stir in beans, tomatoes, chili powder, salt, cumin, pepper and garlic powder. In a slow cooker place two tortillas side by side, overlapping if necessary. Layer with a forth of the beef mixture and a fourth of the cheese. Repeat layers three more times. Pour enchilada sauce over all. Cover and cook on low for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until heated through.

  2. Another meal for busy nights when we all are needing to eat supper at different times. I love that no one has to “heat up” their supper – it’s ready when they are ! :-) Mr. H. loved it!

  3. And the leftovers the next day?? SO good!
