    That's rather nonspecific.

    i like to make something I call tamale pie by slicing up a polenta loaf into medallions. I line the medallions along the bottom of a square pan. Then I smear refried beans on top of that until its covered. Then I add verde enchilada sauce on top and smother the whole thing with mexican cheese. I imagine you could put meat in one of the layers, but I try to avoid meat.

    I recalculated the calories with exact ingredients that I used and came out with 375 per serving.

    What I'm kind of looking for is a baked dish. Someone I know made something one time with beef, doritos, cheese. I wanted to know if anyone had something sort of similiar but healthier?

    This is really good for a cold Mexican dip: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/07/skinny-taco-dip.html

    Any taco bake you do should reduce or remove the refried beans; they're a very heavy food to try to work around.
