Mexican Tex-Mex Burrito Enchilada Casserole image

My DH really, really enjoys this, while I just find it OK. ;) I adopted this recipe from the RecipeZaar account in August 2006, and after I prepared it Sept. 4, 2006, I made some minor changes (adding the size of canned ingredients, adding onions in with the meat mixture, etc). Original poster's comments: "This is more of a Tex Mex recipe than Mexican. Truly delicious!"
