STEPS
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Brown turkey in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks for about 10 minutes. Stir in taco seasoning mix and water, bring mixture to a boil, and reduce heat to low. Simmer until thickened for about 5 minutes. Stir in green chilies and remove from heat.
Spread a scant 2/3 cup enchilada sauce evenly over the bottom of an 8x10-inch baking dish. Top with 4 tortillas, overlapping if necessary. Spread tortillas with 1/2 of the sour cream, 1/2 of the refried beans, 1/2 of the turkey mixture, and 1/3 of the cheese blend. Top with another 2/3 cup enchilada sauce and 4 more tortillas. Firmly press down on tortillas to compact layers.
Repeat layers, spreading remaining sour cream, refried beans, turkey mixture, 1/3 the cheese blend, and 2/3 cup enchilada sauce onto tortillas. Top with remaining 4 tortillas. Finish layering casserole with remaining 2/3 cup enchilada sauce and remaining 1/3 the cheese blend.
Bake casserole uncovered in the preheated oven until the cheese topping is melted and bubbling and casserole is hot, about 20 minutes.
