Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

ingredients
2 pounds ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 can (4 ounce size) black olives, sliced (reserve some for garnish)
1 can (4 ounce size) diced green chiles
1 can (10 ounce size) diced tomatoes with green chili peppers such as Rotel
2 1/2 cups taco sauce
1 can (16 ounce size) refried beans
12 (8-inch size) flour tortillas
9 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, onion, and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the beef is browned. Drain off any excess grease.
Add the olives, green chiles, tomatoes, taco sauce, and refried beans. Mix well. Cook on low heat for 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
Spread a thin layer of the beef mixture in the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish (or other large baking dish).
Place a layer of the flour tortillas over the beef mixture. Top with another layer of meat, then a layer of shredded cheddar cheese. Repeat the layers with the remaining tortillas, meat mixture, and cheese, ending with meat and cheese on top.
Sprinkle the top of the lasagna with the reserved black olives.
Place the dish in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 20-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the lasagna is bubbly.
Remove the burrito lasagna from the oven and let it stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Very good and easy to prepare. Little clean up and everyone loved it!

We have made this many times and it is always a hit. We prefer to layer the meat/meat mix separate from the beans and b/c we have some plain eaters I put all the extras on the side

We didn't have a 4-quart casserole to make this in, but it fit just fine in a 13x9 baking dish. If you want more heat to it, use salsa or picante sauce instead of taco sauce.
