Subject: carrie's enchilada casserole

i tried making enchiladas one night, but i found they weren't very filling because you can't stuff that much meat into one enchilada sized tortilla....so! here's what i did.

buy one can of enchilada sauce (i actually mixed one can of green with one can of red, check the carb counts and pick whatever you want)

shred two tortillas (the low carb ones i mentioned, or you can find corn tortillas for about 5 carbs per serving if you look hard enough at your grocery. try to find Tam-X-icos brand) in the bottom of a 9x9 casserole dish.

cover with a thick layer of seasoned cooked ground beef (i wouldn't use a packet of taco mix, because it's very carby. i just used like some garlic powder and chili powder).

Cover with cheese.

shred 2 more tortillas and cover the meat/cheese.

Cover with sauce and MORE shredded cheese.

bake until melty! very tasty. and you get more meat than tortilla!
if you use 4 low carb tortillas, that'd be 12 grams for the whole dish. but you certainly won't eat them all at one time. the sauce will have 1 to 2 carbs per serving. so you can get a big meal for probably 6 to 8 grams.

oh. i forgot. pour a little of the sauce at the bottom of the dish before you do your first layer of tortillas so they won't stick. xoxo (NT) -- carrie, 22:58:53 04/28/03 Mon
