Beef Taco Bake

Beef Taco Bake
From: Better Homes and Gardens (but not sure when and where I got the recipe)

2 pounds ground beef
2 pkgs taco seasoning mix
2 cups salsa
12 flour tortillas cut in strips
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

In a skillet, cook the beef until brown and drain fat. Add the taco seasoning and blend according to package directions. Mix 1 cup of the salsa in with the beef mixture. Grease 2 freezer/oven safe 8 X 8 pans. Spread a small amount of the beef mixture in the bottom of the pan. Cover the meat mixture with 1/2 of the tortillas (1/4 on each pan). Next layer some of the grated cheese over the tortilla strips. Spread 1/2 the meat mixture to make the next layer. Spread the rest of the salsa over the top and then some more cheese. Now the rest of the tortilla strips, then the rest of the meat mixture. Finish with the rest of the cheese. Now freeze one (or both). When you are ready to eat the meal, defrost in the fridge. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until heated through.
