Step 3 3. Oil the pie dish (I used olive oil), and then layer the tortillas first, then the ground beef mixture, and then top with the shredded cheese.
Step 4 4. Pour the water over the top, cover with foil, and then bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.

Enchilada Pie is an easy way to make enchiladas without having to roll each tortilla. It is quick to make since the ingredients are layered easily into a pie dish for baking.

Method:

First, cook the ground beef and onion in a skillet on the stove until the ground beef is browned and thoroughly cooked.

Next, add the seasonings and the tomato sauce to the ground beef and onion mixture.

Once the mixture is heated, oil the bottom of the pie dish (Or any casserole dish you have will work!). Then, layer the corn tortillas, meat sauce, and cheese in the dish.

Next, you will pour the water over the top.

Cover and bake the Enchilada Pie at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
