Not a bad recipe. I added onions and used red pepper flakes instead of chiles because it was what I had...and used ground turkey instead of beef. In the future I will add salsa/enchilada sauce, corn and olives. I think it would also be good to use chicken slices instead of ground beef/turkey.

I don't like canned soups so I substituted with reduced fat sour cream mixed with a little minced jalapeño and cumin. I also used a little more cheese. I stacked mine in a springform pan and garnished the top with slivers of fresh jalapeño. It looked amazing before we dove into it.

It tasted better the next day reheated but my brood hated this :( I didnt think it tasted that bad but it was a wash. Being frugal I saved it for lunch leftovers for me and it tasted better after being doctored with spices. Thanks anyway!

I just made this for the first time and my husband and I loved it. I didn't like the green chilie idea though so instead I used green pepper, onion, and black olives to make it more Mexican. I also used enough cheese to cover each layer. Next time my husband said I should top it off with salsa so I'll see how that adds to it.

My 4-year-old is a Slow, Picky eater. We are constantly having to make sure she's eating her food because she gets easily sidetracked. Well, I made Tortilla Surprise tonight, and she scarfed it down - and asked for more!!! This was a wonderful dish! I did make a couple of alterations - I did not have chiles, so I left that out. In its place, for the flavor, I added a layer of enchilada sauce on top of the beans. Also, when cooking my ground turkey (healthy option), I added onion powder for an extra kick. Yum!!!

Throw in a can of enchilada sauce, olives, and chopped onions and a lot more cheddar and you have a great meal I have been making for over 20years. It's great!
