This is a great recipe for summer as you make the whole thing in the microwave. If you want to cut back on the sodium, make your own taco seasoning or buy taco seasoning from Penzey's. You can use ground turkey in place of ground beef as well...just add a little olive oil when you brown the meat so it doesn't dry out.
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix
1/2 C. water
4 flour tortillas, cut into quarters
1 C. salsa
1 C. Mexican style shredded cheese
2 C. shredded lettuce
2 green onions, sliced
1/4 C. sour cream
Crumble meat into microwaveable colander, place over microwaveable bowl. Microwave on high 8 min. stirring every 2 minutes to break up meat. Discard fat. Transfer meat to 9-in. microwaveable pie plate. Stir in seasoning mix and water. Microwave 5 minutes stirring after 3 minutes.
Remove half of the meat mixture; set aside. Cover remaining meat mixture in pie plate with half of the tortilla quarters. Repeat layers of meat mixture and tortillas. Top with salsa and cheese. Microwave 4 minutes.
Top with remaining ingredients. Cut into wedges and serve.
