Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. 
  • Wash and dry all produce. 
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Halve tortillas.
  • Thinly slice green onion.
Make filling
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then beef and half the peppers. Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Add Mexican Seasoning. Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until fragrant.
  • Add crushed tomatoes, 1/2 cup (3/4 cup) water and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring occasionally, until sauce reduces slightly.
Assemble enchilada casserole
3
  • Lightly oil a 9x5-inch baking loaf dish (8x8-inch baking dish for 4 servings), then line with parchment paper, leaving overhang on two sides. 
  • On the bottom of the prepared baking dish, spread some filling.
  • Arrange a third of the tortillas over top. (TIP: It's okay if tortilla pieces overlap.)
  • Top with a third of the remaining filling, then a third of the cheese.
  • Repeat with remaining tortillas, remaining filling and remaining cheese.
Bake enchilada casserole
4
  • Bake casserole in the middle of the oven for 7-10 min, until cheese is melted and layers are heated through. 
Make salad
5
  • Meanwhile, to a large bowl, add half the vinegar (use all for 4 servings), 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
  • Add spinach, remaining peppers and half the green onions, then toss to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Let casserole cool for 5 min in the pan, then use parchment to lift it out of pan. Cut into slices.
  • Divide casserole and salad between plates.
  • Dollop sour cream over casserole, then sprinkle remaining green onions over top.
