There are hundreds of different types of salsa. Everything from green (tomatillo) to red (traditional) salsa. This ingredient is really up to you. Depending on how spicy you want your dish and want flavor profile you want to add. Since you are already including diced tomatoes we would recommend using a salsa that is not too chunky. A great salsa is one that has a slightly smoky flavor from the charred or grilled peppers. It will turn your dinner into a whole new experience
Ingredients
1 pound lean ground beef

We recommend Ole El Paso or Taco Bell’s flavorful seasoning

10 (6 inches) soft corn tortillas
1 cup of your favorite salsa
½ cup shredded Colby cheese
( Mexican or taco-style cheese works great too)

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F
In a deep cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, brown your ground beef. Make sure you break it up into small pieces while cooking and stir frequently.
Pour excess grease out before adding other ingredients
Once ground beef is cooked, stir in the taco seasoning and tomatoes
Line a 9×13-inch baking dish with half of your tortillas
Spoon the ground beef mixture onto the tortillas
Top with the remaining tortillas and spread salsa over the top tortillas then sprinkle with the cheese
Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly
Remove from the oven, serve and ENJOY!
