Easy Enchilada Casserole

My friend Amy shared this recipe with me a few weeks ago and I finally got a chance to try it tonight... It was wonderful!! Also, once again, super easy to throw together - that is unless when you have it all made and are cleaning up, you find the can of opened tomato sauce that you forgot to add... Then adding it to the layers is a little tricky! :) So, don't forget one of the ingredients and you will be able to whip up this baby in a flash!
