Comment préparer California Mexican Tortilla Casserole

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 3-quart casserole dish.
In a large skillet, sauté 1 lb ground beef with 1 medium onion (chopped) and 2 cloves garlic (minced) over medium heat until browned. Drain excess grease.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons chili powder over the meat and mix well.
Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup sliced black olives, and 4 ounces canned green chiles (diced).
Simmer over very low heat for 15 minutes.
In a medium bowl, beat together 1 (15 ounce) container cottage cheese and 1 large egg until well combined.
Spread 1/3 of the meat mixture evenly in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.
Layer with half of 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, half of the cottage cheese mixture, and half of 8-10 (6-inch) corn tortillas.
Repeat layers with the remaining 1/3 of meat mixture, remaining Jack cheese, remaining cottage cheese mixture, and remaining tortillas.
Top with the final 1/3 of the meat mixture and sprinkle with 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake, uncovered, at 350°F (175°C) for 45-55 minutes, or until thoroughly heated and cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with sour cream, sliced black olives, and chopped green onions, if desired.
