Ground Beef Casserole

I love a ground beef casserole. They are hearty and filling and don’t break the bank. This one features layers of crunchy Dorito chips, gooey melted cheese, and a taco-seasoned ground beef mixture.

Ingredients

• Ground Beef– I use 1 1/2 to 2 pounds. I prefer to use lean ground beef. If using a fattier ground beef, be sure to drain off the fat well.
• Onion
• Taco Seasoning– use a “hot” taco seasoning to make this dish spicy.
• Rotel Tomatoes– use “hot” Rotel tomatoes for a spicier dish.
• Black Beans– Pinto beans can be used instead or the beans can be left out.
• Sour Cream
• Nacho Cheese Flavored Doritos– try using Cool Ranch Doritos instead.
• Shredded Mexican Cheese Blend

Toppings

To really take this recipe over the top, top it with your favorite taco toppings. I like shredded iceberg lettuce, black olives, chopped fresh cilantro, diced red onion, pickled jalapeno slices, and diced avocado or guacamole.

Additions and Substitutions

• Use ground turkey or ground chicken in place of ground beef.
• Use Cool Ranch Doritos instead of Nacho Cheese Doritos.

Recipe Tips

Don’t crush the Doritos too small or they won’t have as much crunch.

You will need a 9×13-inch casserole dish to bake this recipe.

How To Store

Leftovers will keep for 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. However, it is best eaten shortly after it is made. The chips will lose their crunch over time. I don’t recommend freezing this casserole.
