Seven Layer Tortilla Pie

If I had my way we would have Mexican food every day, but Mike on the other hand would not be so happy! I love anything Mexican, so when I found this recipe I was very excited to give it a try. I have a similar recipe, but I liked the additional flavors and textures added to this recipe, even Mike was surprised as to how good it really was. We topped each slice of pie with diced tomatoes, sour cream and guacamole, which really put it over the top. Easy recipe with a ton of flavor!
