Ingredients
  

  • Five bags of 10 tortillas 50 tortillas total
  • 10 lbs of cooked ground beef
  • 2-3 diced green peppers
  • 1 diced onion
  • 1 cup of taco seasoning yes, this is for all of that meat! I buy taco seasoning in bulk or you can make homemade
  • Four 16-oz cans of refried beans
  • Four 7-oz cans of green chilies
  • 12 cups of shredded provolone cheese
  • Four 16-oz packs of sliced pepper jack cheese each pack has 24 slices

Instructions
 

To Make Burrito Pie Meat Mixture

  • Cook 10 lbs of ground beef along with 2-3 diced green pepper, onion, and 1 cup of taco seasoning. I cook my ground beef in a variety of ways (slow cooker, pressure cooker, roaster oven, conventional oven, or two big pans on the stove).
  • Once ground beef is fully cooked, crumbled, and drained add in and mix thoroughly four 16-oz cans of refried beans.

To Assemble The Burrito Pie Freezer Meals

  • Layer the bottom of each deep dish pan with 6 flat tortillas
  • Add a layer of meat mixture on top of tortillas
  • On top of meat mixture spread out approximately 15 slices of pepper jack cheese
  • Top cheese slices with about 1/2 of one 7-oz can of green chilies
  • Start next layer with 6 flat tortillas
  • Repeat steps above
  • End with 6 tortillas topped off with 4 cups of shredded cheese. Use your favorite shredded cheese. In this recipe, I used shredded provolone.
  • To eat right away place pan in preheated oven at 375 with a tented foil lid for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes remove foil lid and allow Burrito Pie to cook an additional 15 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
