Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds ground beef
1 ⅓ cups water
2 (1 ounce) packages taco seasoning mix (such as McCormick® Original)
1 (16 ounce) can hot chili beans, undrained
1 (12 ounce) bag nacho cheese-flavored corn chips (such as Doritos®)
2 (8 ounce) packages shredded mild Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Cook and stir ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until crumbly and browned, about 10 minutes; drain grease. Mix water and taco seasoning mix into ground beef, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low. Simmer ground beef mixture, stirring often, until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Heat chili beans in a saucepan over low heat until simmering.
  • Spread layers of tortilla chips, ground beef mixture, and chili beans, respectively into a casserole dish; repeat layers until you run out of chips, beef, and beans. Top casserole with Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbling and tips of exposed tortilla chips are golden brown, about 15 minutes.

This casserole was a little too cheesy for my taste. I think I'll use less cheese next time.

I'm not a fan of ground beef, so I used shredded chicken in this casserole instead. It turned out great!

This casserole was a little too spicy for my kids, so I used mild salsa instead of medium.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I used a dairy-free cheese blend in this casserole. It turned out great!

I followed the recipe exactly and my casserole turned out dry. I think I should have added more liquid.

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra taco seasoning and it was much better.
