Description
Dorito Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that combines seasoned ground beef, creamy ingredients, and a crunchy Doritos topping, making it a perfect choice for family dinners or parties.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 bag (9 oz) Nacho Cheese Doritos, crushed
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- ½ cup sour cream (optional)
- Chopped green onions or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and brown the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook for 5-7 minutes, then drain any excess fat.
- Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the cooked beef, mixing well and cooking for another 2-3 minutes to absorb the flavor.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned ground beef, black beans, cream of chicken soup, and diced tomatoes. Stir well until fully combined.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and spread half of the crushed Doritos on the bottom.
- Spoon half of the meat mixture over the Doritos and sprinkle with one cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Repeat the layers with the remaining Doritos, meat mixture, and cheese.
- Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil for the last 10 minutes to let the cheese bubble and brown slightly. Allow the casserole to sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Consider using ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
- For extra flavor, try adding diced jalapeños or bell peppers to the meat mixture.
- Don’t skip the resting time after baking, as it helps the casserole set and makes it easier to serve.
- Feel free to substitute ingredients based on your preferences, like using different cheese or beans.
