Layered Fiesta Casserole

I found this recipe on the Kraft Foods website and decided to try it out because it looked so good and easy to make. It was delish!

1 lb. extra-lean ground beef
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1 jar (16 oz.) Salsa
1 can (14-1/2 oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained (I omitted, the salsa was enough tomatoes)
1 pkg. (10 oz.) frozen corn, thawed
12 corn tortillas (6 inch) (I only used 8 tortillas)
1-1/2 cups KRAFT 2% Milk Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese, divided (I used the reduced fat mx cheese but could also use fat free cheddar)

HEAT oven to 375°F.

BROWN meat with peppers in large skillet; drain. Return to skillet. Stir in salsa, tomatoes and corn.

SPREAD 1 cup meat mixture onto bottom of 13x9-inch baking dish; top with 6 tortillas, overlapping as necessary. Cover with layers of half each of the remaining meat mixture and cheese; top with remaining tortillas and meat mixture. Cover with foil.

BAKE 25 to 30 min. or until heated through. Top with remaining cheese; let stand 5 min. or until melted.

Make Ahead
Assemble casserole as directed. Refrigerate up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, bake at 375°F for 40 to 45 min. or until heated through. Top with cheese; continue as directed.

I tried to figure out the nutritional info based on what I put in and I came up with
330cal, 7.3g fat, 24g protein, 4.7g fiber

Makes 6 servings.

True Confessions

My eating habits have spiralled out of control lately. Well, they are not totally out of coontrol. I have been having more bad days vs. good days but it's not like my whole day is bad. Most of the day is usually good until late afternoon or evening come around and I get the munchies and I give in.

Well, this has been going on way too long and I've put on some weight, so I need to take it off. I'd like to get back to where I was before this happened. I'm guessing it's about 10-15lbs (I was afraid to weigh in), I'll weigh in tomorrow and see how far up I am and come up with a plan.

We're taking holiday pics in 4 weeks, so I need to work hard. Plus in 6 weeks, we head up north to my in-laws for Thanksgiving, so I would really like to be where I was before I spiralled out of control.

I've been slacking with my journaling (partly because work has been busy) although I have no excuse for the weekends...so I need to journal my weekends, starting with this next one. It's going to be tough...this coming weekend I head out of town with the girls for a weekend of scrapbooking, so I'm sure there will be a lot of temptation...I will stay on track AND report when I get back. :-)
