Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1.5-quart round casserole dish with non-stick spray (or 8-inch square pan).
• Slice the corn tortillas into 3 strips each. TIP: stack the tortillas and use a pizza cutter to slice them. This step is why we may refer to this as lazy enchiladas if you don't have the time to stuff and roll each tortilla!
• In a large saute pan, cook and break up the ground beef until no longer pink. The texture should be finely ground (no big chunks of meat). Drain off the fat.
• Add the salsa, enchilada sauce, water, and all the spices and seasonings. Stir well. Simmer uncovered 5 minutes. Taste test and add more salt if desired.
• To the casserole dish, add half the sliced corn tortillas, half the meat sauce, then the cheese. Repeat layer of tortilla strips, meat sauce, and cheese.
• Bake uncovered for 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook the rice according to the package directions. Set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef, onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until the beef is browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Pour off the fat, then add the green chiles, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper to the skillet and stir to combine. Add the tomato and 1 cup water and simmer gently until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the corn and set aside.
• Cover the casserole with foil, tenting it so it doesn't touch the cheese. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until bubbly and hot, about 20 minutes more. Switch the oven to broil and broil until just golden on top, about 5 minutes. Let sit for at least 10 minutes. Top with the olives and scallions and serve with sour cream.
