Kaccy'S Crock Pot Enchilada Casserole - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (14 1/2 ounce) can tomatoes
1 small onion, chopped fine
1 clove garlic, minced fine
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 lb ground beef, browned
1 package taco seasoning mix
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
9 corn tortillas

Preparation

Blend tomatoes with onion and garlic in blender.
Pour in medium saucepan.
Add pepper, salt and tomato paste.
Heat until boiling, then simmer 5 to10 minutes.
Place 3 tortillas in bottom of crock pot.
Layer on tortillas 1/3 of ground beef, 1/3 tomato sauce and 1/3 Cheddar cheese, then 3 more tortillas.
Repeat each layer 2 more times, ending with cheese.
Cover and cook on low 5 to 6 hours.
(I usually go 5 hours to keep beef from overcooking).
