Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 packet taco seasoning
• 1 can (10 oz) Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilies)
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 bag (9-10 oz) Doritos (Nacho Cheese flavor)
• 2 tablespoons green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.

Step 3

Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.

Step 4

Mix in the taco seasoning and cook for 1 minute, then stir in the can of Rotel, cream of chicken soup, and sour cream. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Crush about half the bag of Doritos and spread them evenly across the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.

Step 6

Pour the beef mixture over the crushed Doritos and spread it out evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture.

Step 8

Lightly crush the remaining Doritos and spread them on top of the cheese layer. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese evenly over the top.

Step 9

Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with green onions, if desired, before serving.
