Turkey Enchilada Casserole

Recipe courtesy of Sunset Magazine


Ingredients:
1.5 lbs ground turkey breast
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1 Tbsp oregano, dried
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp canola oil
1 can (29 oz.) red enchilada sauce
Salt
12 corn tortillas (6 in. wide), cut in half
2 cups shredded jack cheese
In a large pan over high heat, stir turkey, onion, garlic, oregano, and cumin in oil until turkey is crumbly and no longer pink, about 4 minutes
Stir in 1 cup enchilada sauce
Add salt to taste
Arrange a fourth of the halves evenly over the bottom of a shallow 3-quart casserole, overlapping to fit
Sprinkle a fourth of the cheese evenly over the tortillas, then top with a third of the turkey mixture and a fourth of the remaining enchilada sauce, spreading each level
Repeat to make two more layers of tortillas, cheese, turkey mixture, and sauce; top with another layer of tortillas and sauce, then cheese
Bake at 425° until cheese is melted and casserole is hot in the center, 18 to 20 minutes
