How to Make Aaron Tippin's Mexican Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown 1 lb of ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Add 1 medium chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning and 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  6. Layer 1/3 of the tortillas in the bottom of the baking dish.
  7. Top with 1/3 of the meat mixture, then 1/3 of the refried beans, and 1/3 of the shredded cheddar cheese.
  8. Repeat layers two more times, ending with a final layer of cheese.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and beginning to brown. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.
