Some nights I'll spend hours putting together a complicated recipe with unusual ingredients, making everything from scratch. But other nights I love those quick and easy recipes that use can food and/or mixes, take no effort, and still taste great.
I'm the kind of cook that loves to watch The Barefoot Contessa one day and Sandra Lee's Semi-Homemade the next.
What can I say...I'm a bit bipolar with my cooking!
This recipe is one of the easy one's. Developed some time ago when I was too lazy or tired to roll my simple beef enchilada's. It tastes the same, and is a whole lot easier.
ENCHILADA CASSEROLE
(Mindi Original)
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 small onion diced
1 green bell pepper diced

2 C. shredded cheddar cheese
2 C. shredded mozzarella cheese
1. Brown the beef, onion, and pepper in a medium sauce pan, seasoning with salt and pepper. Add enchilada sauce to the beef mixture.
2. In a small bowl mix the two cheese together.
3. Spray a medium casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.
4. Layer the ingredients in the casserole dish as follows:

I love quick and easy! My rule of thumb usually is to look for recipes that have 5 ingredients or less. Oh, and the ingredients have to be readily available. None of the fancy schmancy stuff. Hooray for Ina Garten!
