I made it w/o the tomato paste and it turned out great

Okay so i saw this recipe on here and thought it looked really good and without reading the reviews i decided to try it so i made it exactly like it read. thats my worst mistake. the tomato paste made it waaaayyy to tomato flavored! i would have used taco seasoning if I had of thought of it. so yeah unless your a huge fan of tomato paste and a whole lot of chille flavoring dont make this, use taco seasoning

I really didn't like this recipe. I even tried it a couple times to make some variations to see if it would get better... but it just didn't. The cumin gave it a strange sweet taste and no matter what I did, the flour tortillas turned a very gross soggy texture! The only thing that made it edible to me, was eating it with some salsa on top.

This was pretty tasty. I added some chopped jalapenos to spice it up a bit and the can of corn as others suggested. Served sour cream with it on the side.

Simple to put together and delicious. Added half a green and red pepper to ground beef mixture. Thanks for sharing!

I added the changes of most others: can of corn, and black beans. I used ground turkey and a can of mushroom soup instead of tomato sauce, salsa instead of paste. Love it!

This was quick and easy and really good! The only change we'd make is to add a little 'heat' to it, maybe a little cayenne pepper. I rate this a "5-star" and a "repeat" at our house!

I thought this was a good recipe. I added diced chilies to the ground beef and I used 1 can of mexican style tomato sauce with a little bit of regular tomato sauce added, I used the cumin & chili powder as directed, the only thing is next time I will double the sauce so it will be more "saucier", otherwise I thought it was a great recipe.

We really enjoyed this recipe. I added a can of black beans, a can of corn, and half a cup of water. I served with plenty of sour cream. I also used more tortillas then it called for. My son loved this. I split the recipe and froze the other half. We can't wait to eat it again!!

O.k., I changed it a bit: add 1 can diced tomatos, 1 small can diced chili peppers (mild), 1 can beef broth and simmer at the end to reduce back to meatier consistency. Double the spices (trust), add black pepper to taste. I also used corn tortillas instead, softened in oil for just a second or two and I used more cheese. Yummy!! I will definately make this again and soon!

Very nice recipe...a bit on the saucy side for our taste But overall easy to make and very good.

We loved this recipe. We keep kosher so sprinkling the cheese on top would not work for us. I made a layer of beans, then a layer of the meat sauce, then the tortillas, etc. On the top tortilla I poured salsa and baked. Wonderful! We will make this again.

Awesome recipe. Family really enjoyed this.

My family thought this sounded odd at first, but they wound up loving it!

I followed suggestions of others an made a few additions: red and yellow bell peppers, pinto beans, sour cream (in a layer of it's own). Also, I substituted soy ground beef, so it required a beef bullion cube to boost the beef flavor. My boyfriend commented three times that it was a 'great dish' :) I would have liked to figure out how to make the flour tortilla shells a bit crispier as the layers inside. Baking lightly first?

I love this recipe. I made it a few years ago, but now that our family has grown by two more mouths, I needed a larger dish to feed them all. I used 2 lb. of beef, upped the spices by a teaspoon or so, but kept the tomato paste and sauce at the original amounts -- that helped to cut down on the very tomato-y taste. I also added a layer of corn, a layer of black beans and some chili peppers. I used twice as many tortillas and layer two at a time, side by side in a 9x13 dish. It was fantastic -- all my kids ate it up!

IT was very cheesy. I added green peppers and substituted chili powder with paprika. It was good, but there were upset stomachs all around!
