Enchilada Casserole

1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
1 small onion
1 sprinkle of garlic salt
1/2 T chili powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 8 oz. can of tomato sauce
1 can drained black beans
1 can drained corn
1 can chopped olives (optional)
10 corn tortillas
1/2 lb. grated cheese

Brown and crumble hamburger.  Add onion, seasonings, beans, corn, & tomato sauce.  Simmer.  Layer in the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan:  tortillas,1/2 ground beef-sauce mixture, olives, 1/2 of the grated cheese.  Then repeat.  Carefully pour 2/3 c. water over the top.  Bake at 350 for 30 min. covered.

For frozen meal:  I don't love how corn tortillas freeze, so I froze the meat sauce and cheese separate.  Store the corn tortillas in the fridge and then thaw the meat and cheese to complete the instructions above.  I've included the olives as an option if your family likes them.
