Tuna Enchilada Casserole
- 8 corn tortillas
- 10 ounces red enchilada sauce
- 1/3 cup water
- 7 ounces canned tuna, drained and flaked
- 1 lb monterey jack cheese, grated
- 1/3 cup onion, chopped
- 5 black olives, sliced (optional)
- Wrap tortillas in a slightly dampened tea towel. Place in microwave for 2-3 minutes, (depending on the wattage of your microwave) to soften. If you do not have a microwave, fry quickly in a bit of oil to soften.
- Mix the enchilada sauce with the water.
- Pour a scant 1/4 cup sauce into the bottom of a greased round, 2-qt. casserole.
- Pour the rest of the sauce into dish deep and wide enough to dip tortillas into.
- Dip two tortillas in sauce and arrange in casserole; sprinkle with 1/3 of the tuna, 1/4 of the cheese, 1/3 of the onion, and a scant 1/4 cup of the sauce.
- Make two more layers like this and top with the last two tortillas and the remaining cheese.
- Pour the rest of the sauce over all and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
- It looks pretty if you sprinkle sliced black olives over the top before serving.
