  • Add a huge spoonful of sauce (1/4 cup) to the bottom of a 9 x 13 casserole dish.

  • Add 1/2 of the meat mixture, sprinkle with 1/4 cup cheese. 
  • Add another layer of tortillas with an additional 1/4 cup of sauce, then add the remaining meat mixture, followed by 1/4 cup cheese sprinkled on top.  
  • Add your last layer of tortillas, followed by 1/4 cup sauce and top with 1 cup of cheese.
  • Top with black olives and green onions.  
  • Bake on 350F for 30 minutes, make sure to bake until it is heated to 165F in the center.  It should be crispy and bubbly on top.
