A quick, easy and somewhat healthy dinner fix for anytime you need to get dinner on the table quickly and keep 'em happy! Can even be a great appetizer or dip for a party. ;) I use this often and it keeps everyone asking for it over and over.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound ground beef
1 ½ cups chunky salsa
1 (10 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
¾ cup creamy salad dressing (e.g. Miracle Whip)
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 cups crushed tortilla chips
2 cups Colby cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until evenly browned. Drain grease. Remove from the heat, and stir the salsa, corn, mayonnaise and chili powder into the beef.

  • Bake for 20 minutes uncovered in the preheated oven, until cheese is melted and dish is thoroughly heated.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chips: Sturdy tortilla chips that can hold up to the weight of the toppings are best. Avoid thin or delicate chips, as they will easily break.
  • Layer the ingredients in the correct order: Start with a layer of chips, then add the beans, meat, cheese, and toppings. This will help to ensure that the chips stay crispy and the cheese melts evenly.
  • Don't overload the nachos: If you add too many toppings, the nachos will become soggy and difficult to eat. Keep the layers thin so that each bite is a perfect balance of flavors and textures.
  • Bake the nachos until the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will take about 10-15 minutes in a preheated oven. Keep an eye on the nachos so that they don't overcook.
  • Serve the nachos immediately: Nachos are best enjoyed when they are hot and fresh out of the oven. Top with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, salsa, guacamole, or jalapeños.

Conclusion:

Layered nacho bake is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day gatherings. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of preparation, you can create a nacho bake that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
