Layer My Tortillas

Mexican food makes me happy. Not sure why....the fish bowl margaritas might have something to do with it...but hey, whatever!

I'm going to attempt this on the weekend...except the sound of just black beans is just too healthy...so I'm going to make it MAN-STYLE.....with meat HAHA

Remember to check back next week to see how it turned out!!

Seven Layer Tortilla Pie

Ingredients

• 2 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 cup salsa, divided
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
• 7 (8 inch) flour tortillas
• 2 cups shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
• 1 cup salsa
• 1/2 cup sour cream

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl, mash pinto beans. Stir in 3/4 cup salsa and garlic.
3. In a separate bowl, mix together 1/4 cup salsa, cilantro, black beans and tomatoes.
4. Place 1 tortilla in a pie plate or tart dish. Spread 3/4 cup pinto bean mixture over tortilla to within 1/2 inch of edge. Top with 1/4 cup cheese, and cover with another tortilla. Spread with 2/3 cup black bean mixture, and top with 1/4 cup cheese. Repeat layering twice. Cover with remaining tortilla, and spread with remaining pinto bean mixture and cheese.
5. Cover with foil, and bake in preheated oven for about 40 minutes. Cut into wedges, and serve with salsa and sour cream.
