Speedy Mexican

Sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures.  One night I had limited supplies on hand, limited time and hungry people.  This was our creation.  They liked it well enough for us to put it into the regular rotation.

Speedy Mexican
3/4-1 lb ground beef
1 jar Newman's Peach Salsa
1/2-1 c frozen corn (as your family likes it)
Shredded Cheese
Tortillas (any size will work)

Brown meat then add salsa and corn.

Put tortilla on a baking pan. Spread meat/salsa corn mixture on and top with cheese. Layer another tortilla on top with the same mixture; repeat layers. Add another tortilla and top with cheese.. I make mine 3-4 tortillas deep with the last tortilla getting cheese only.

(Generally I use 3/4 lb ground beef and make 2 of this "tortilla pie/lasagna like" things which is enough for us.)

Bake at 425 until the cheese on top is melted or if you are really in a hurry throw in the broiler for a couple of minutes to melt the cheese

Cut like a pizza and serve with more salsa, lettuce and jalapenos.

Also, sometimes I fry onions in butter/sugar to top the tortilla stacks.
