I layered refried beans on top of the tortillas, seasoned meat, cheese and sprinkled with salsa (layered twice). Once baked, dabbed sour cream, black olives & jalapeno's - it was excellent!

I added a little bit of ceyenne pepper to the meat to add some spice and put out lettuce, tomato, sour cream, hot sauce,and black olives to put on top of it. It was great!

A little dry and not very filling.
