Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds 93% lean ground beef

1/8 t cayenne pepper

1/4 t red pepper flakes

1 T cumin

1 T chili powder

1 bunch green onions, chopped

1 package taco seasoning mix

2 cups water or beef broth

1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained

1 (4 ounce) can diced green chile peppers, undrained

1 (14.5 ounce) can refried beans

1/4 cup salsa

2 c shredded mexican cheese blend

1 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese

2 eggs

8 (10 inch) flour tortillas

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F

Place ground beef in a large, deep skillet. Brown on medium heat with green onions, cayenne, red pepper flakes, cumin, chili powder and taco seasoning mix.

When all pink color has disappeared, drain if needed and return to skillet, add water, diced tomatoes with juice, and green chiles with juice.

Reduce heat to medium.

In a medium bowl, mix together ricotta and eggs.

Place 2 tortillas in the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan.

Mix refried beans with salsa (keep it thick - may not need all the salsa)

Spread 1/4 bean mixture on tortillas

Add layer 1/4 of the ricotta mixture

Spoon 1/4 of the meat mixture over the ricotta

Add layer of shredded cheese

Repeat layers until all is used up, ending with shredded cheese.

Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until sauce is bubbly.

Serve with salsa, sliced black olives, chopped tomato, and guacamole - or your favorite mexican acompaniaments.
