Quesadilla Pie

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 8-9 inch springform pan with cooking spray and set aside. Prepare all ingredients; chop the onion and tomatoes, mince the garlic.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes until translucent. Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and continue to cook for about 1 minute.
3. Add the ground beef and cook until completely cooked through, crumbling as it cooks, about 7-8 minutes.
4. Add the tomatoes and tomato paste and stir to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
5. Assemble the cake. Place a tortilla on the bottom of the springform pan. Top with the beef mixture and spread to the side. Sprinkle about ¼ cup of each cheese over the top. Repeat this 4 more times for a total of 5 layers (the top should be cheese).
6. Bake until the cheese is melted and starting to brown on the top, about 15-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for about 5 minutes then remove the sides of the springform pan.
7. Slice and serve. Garnish each piece with sour cream, guacamole, Pico de Gallo, jalapeno, and any other toppings of your choosing.
8. Any leftovers should be cooled completely and stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
