Mexican Casserole

Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 can Ranch Style beans
  • 1 (10–12 ounce) bag tortilla chips, crushed (you may not need the whole bag)
  • 1 can Ro-Tel tomatoes
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 package taco seasoning
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup water
  • Sour cream and salsa, for serving

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef with chopped onion over medium heat. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Add taco seasoning, Ro-Tel tomatoes, Ranch Style beans, cream of chicken soup, and water. Stir until well combined.
  4. In a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, layer half of the crushed tortilla chips, half of the meat mixture, and half of the shredded cheese.
  5. Repeat layers, ending with cheese on top.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve warm with sour cream and salsa on the side.

Tips

  • Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
  • Add sliced jalapeños or black olives for extra flavor.
  • Leftovers reheat beautifully and make a great next-day lunch
