   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1      pound         lean ground beef
    1      tablespoon    instant minced onion
    1      clove         garlic -- peeled and crushed
    2      teaspoons     chili powder
      1/2  teaspoon      pepper
      2/3  cup           water
    1      can           tomato sauce -- (8 ounce)
    2      cups          sharp cheddar cheese -- shredded
    6                    tortillas
 
 1. Crumble beef into a shallow, 2 1/2 -quart, heat-resistant, non-metallic
 casserole.  Sprinkle meat with minced onion and crushed garlic.   2. Heat,
 uncovered, on ROAST for 6 minutes.  Stir occasionally to break up meat. 3.
 Drain excess fat.  Add chili powder, pepper, water and tomato sauce.  Stir to
 combine.  Heat, uncovered, 5 minutes on ROAST. 4. Alternately, layer
 tortillas, meat sauce and cheese in a round, 1 1/2-quart, heat-resistant,
 non-metallic casserole.  Last layer should be cheese. 5. Heat, covered, on
 ROAST for 9-11 minutes or until cheese is melted.

 NOTES : I use powdered garlic instead of minced garlic. I cook the casserole
 on HIGH instead of Roast.  And I cook it for 12-13 minutes instead of the
 time called for.  It depends on how strong your microwave is so adjust for
 that on all cooking times.
