Super Easy Burrito Pie

Burrito Pie

Burrito Casserole Turned Burrito Pie

I love good Mexican food!  Several months ago I found a recipe for Burrito Casserole from Miranda’s Recipes and it quickly became a family favorite.  But since I tend to be a bit lazy when preparing dinner late in the afternoon, I didn’t like having to tear up all the tortillas.  So I grabbed my favorite pie dish and decided to create this yummy burrito pie instead. 🙂  Note the ingredients for burrito pie are the same as what you would use for a burrito casserole.

How To Make Burrito Pie

5.  While all that is warming up, mix 1 can of mushroom soup with 1/2 cup of sour cream.

6.  Once you’re ready to start layering, trim the ends of your tortilla (with clean kitchen scissors) so that it lays nicely in the bottom of your pie dish.  Remove the tortilla and spray the dish with nonstick cooking spray.

 

Layering the Burrito Pie

This handy little guide shows you how to layer your burrito pie.  If you need more concrete steps, just remember:

…and don’t worry that your sour cream mixture mixes in with the cheese from the previous layer.  This is just fine. 🙂

8.  Cook uncovered at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
