Enchalida Casserole

A patient recently gave me this recipe. It is the ultimate quick gluten free meal!  If you have the time I suggest cooking the meat and onions in a pan rather than microwaving but the result is always a tasty, filling meal!

Enchalida Casserole

 
1-lb. hamburger

1/4 cup chopped onions

8-0z. can tomato sauce

1/2 cup water

packet of gluetin free taco seasoning

4 corn tortillas

shredded cheddar cheese

chopped tomatoes

sour cream

Microwave meat and onions on high 4-6 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes, drain. Add tomato sauce, water, taco sauce. Microwave 8 minutes, stir every 4 minutes. Place a tortilla in microwave casserole the same size as the tortille. Top with layers of 1/4 each (meat sauce and cheese). Repeat 3-times. Microwave 2-5 minutes. Let set 5 minutes. Serve topped with tomatoes and sour cream

  1. Dr. Erickson,

    I'm curious about the "microwave" concept for quick and easy cooking. Does it truly "zap" out the nutrients in food?

    1. This link goes to a good explanation of how microwaves affect the food we cook in them. In short, the process used to heat the food also destroys vitamin complexes and other nutrients within the food.
