Easy Cheesy Tortilla Pie

Our super easy cheesy Tortilla Pie is packed with layers of seasoned ground beef, melty cheese, and soft tortillas, all baked to perfection!

I made this one as listed the first time, now it's more improvised.   I use Mild taco seasoning with ground beef and omit the tomatoes.    I've also dropped down to 3 tortillas and build the pie in a springform pan.    This is one of my husband's favorite meals.
