This oddly named dish is fun to make with its lots of steps, and tastes good, too. The original 1966 recipe from Favorite Recipes of America called for beans, but I omitted the beans and increased meat to 2 lb. and increased tomato sauce to 15 oz. You will need:
You’ll need:
2 lbs. ground beef
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. sugar
1 15-oz. can tomato sauce
1 Tbsp. chili powder
12 corn tortillas
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
Brown beef and onion with salt, pepper, and sugar. Add tomato sauce, chili powder, and ½ can water; simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Soften tortillas using your preferred method. Lay out a tortilla and fill with a portion of the meat mixture; roll up tortilla and place in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Continue rolling tortillas with meat filling, arranging in baking dish until bottom of dish is covered.
Pour remaining chili mixture on top of tortillas; sprinkle with grated cheese. Bake uncovered in a 350° F oven for 15 minutes.
Feast!
