8. Use the entire can of refried beans.
9. Bring the beef mixture back and put half of it, spread it on top of the beans.

11. Spread the cheese out, then add six more corn tortillas, spread them out.
12. Repeat the process: beans, beef, cheese, six more corn tortillas, and the last half cup of enchilada sauce.
13. Spread it out, and then hit it with one more layer of cheese. Put the whole thing in the oven at 350 for about 30 minutes.
