I have made this several times as is and incorporating various suggestions as it is a very kid-friendly recipe. Of all the iterations we like best to add a package of taco seasoning to the meat mixture along with the specified ingredients and put a layer of refried beans on each tortilla as we layer. A really helpful recipe - Read More

Very easy. I was skeptical while making it but the texture was awesome- just soft enough to cut with only the edge of your fork. The meat mix was awesome: meaty cheesy and creamy (but NOT overpowered by the Velveeta) I could see the meat mix being even better with some tinkering (jalapenos red peppers etc.). I recommend this if you don't have more than an hour but you don't want to make a heavy hearty meal. Read More
