Quick Answer: Yes — try this beefy, cheesy enchilada casserole. It’s simple, hearty, and feeds a crowd without the fuss of rolling tortillas one by one.

Easy Beef Enchilada Casserole

Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef
• ½ onion, diced
• Salt, to taste
• 24 corn tortillas
• 16–24 oz shredded cheese (any kind, adjust depending on how cheesy you like it)
• 3 cans medium green enchilada sauce
• 1 small can diced green chiles

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Cook beef with onion and salt until browned.
3. In a 9×12 casserole dish, layer as follows:
   - Bottom layer: 6 tortillas, beef, cheese, sauce.
   - Middle layer: 6 tortillas, beef, cheese, sauce, plus the green chiles.
   - Third layer: 6 tortillas, beef, cheese, sauce.
   - Top: Final 6 tortillas, remaining cheese, and last of the sauce.
4. Bake for 45 minutes.
5. Serve hot. For even better flavor, refrigerate overnight and reheat — the sauce soaks in more deeply.

This casserole skips the rolling and still gives you the classic cheesy, saucy enchilada taste in a big family-style dish.
