Arizona Casserole
Arizona Casserole is an impressive dinner. Made with 4 lb. ground beef chuck, 2 large onions, chopped, 2 cloves garlic, minced, 1/4 c. chili powder and 6 c. tomato sauce, this recipe delivers authentic, satisfying flavors. A classic recipe that has been enjoyed for generations.
Brown meat in large skillet.
Saute onions and garlic.
Combine with meat.
Sprinkle chili powder over meat.
Add tomato sauce, salt, sugar, half the olives and all the green chiles.
Simmer over low heat 15 minutes.
Fry tortillas in hot oil (much easier to use corn chips or Fritos).
Beat cottage cheese and eggs together. Spread 1/3 meat mix in bottom of 2 (13 x 9-inch) baking dishes. Cover with 1/2 the Jack cheese, half the cottage cheese mixture and half the tortillas (or chips).
Repeat, finishing with a final layer of meat.
Top with Cheddar cheese.
Bake uncovered at 350Β° for 40 minutes or until cheese is melted and casserole is heated through.
Garnish with sour cream, green onions and rest of black olives.
Freezes well but defrost before baking.
Serves 12 to 16 hungry people.
