2 cans (16 ounces each) refried beans
12 8-inch flour or corn tortillas

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Meanwhile, saute meat in a large skillet for 3-5 minutes. Add onion, garlic, taco seasoning and water. Saute an additional 3-5 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Mix in olives, chilies, tomatoes, taco sauce and refried beans. Stir mixture thoroughly, reduce heat to low, and let simmer 15-20 minutes.
Spread thin layer of meat mixture in 4-quart casserole dish (or deep 9X13 pan). Cover with layer of tortillas, then more meat, then cheese. Repeat layers until all tortillas are used, topping off with a layer of meat, enchilada sauce (if using), and then cheese.
Bake 20-30 minutes, or until cheese is slightly brown and bubbly.
