Turkey Tortilla Casserole Recipe - Cooking Index
| 2 teaspoons | 10ml | Canola oil |
| 1 | Green bell pepper - seeded and chopped | |
| 1 | Onion - chopped | |
| 1/2 lb | 227g / 8oz | Ground skinless turkey breast |
| 1 | Cajun-style stewed tomatoes - (14 1/2 oz) | |
| 1 cup | 160g / 5.6oz | Fat-free refried beans |
| 1 | Chopped green chiles - (4 oz) - rinsed and drained | |
| 6 | Corn tortillas - (6" dia) - quartered | |
| 1/3 cup | 48g / 1.7oz | Shredded reduced fat Monterey Jack cheese |
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil. Add the pepper and onion; cook, stirring as needed, until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the turkey and cook, stirring as needed, until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, beans and chiles; bring to boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Spoon one-third of the turkey mixture onto the bottom of a 10- by 6-inch baking pan. Arrange half of the tortillas evenly over the top. Repeat the layering once more, ending with the turkey mixture. Sprinkle evenly with the cheese. Bake, covered, 20 minutes. Uncover and bake until heated through and golden, about 10 minutes longer.
