Directions

Cook ground beef in pan using medium-high heat for 9 to 10 minutes, breaking into small chunks with back of spoon until browned and completely cooked. Drain in colander. Return to pan and add onion and garlic; simmer, uncovered, for 5 to 10 minutes until vegetables soften.
Mash kidney beans. Combine with beef mixture; stir in chili sauce. Place 1 tortilla on baking sheet. Spread right to edge with one-third of the beef mixture. Sprinkle with one-quarter each Cheddar and green onion. Repeat layers, finishing with tortilla, cheese and green onion.
