Favorite Taco Inspired Casserole
Inspired by the typical taco casserole, this recipe is set apart by the addition of Doritos. The filling is SO good I could almost eat it on it’s own with tortilla chips or is the perfect filling to wrap in tortillas with your favorite taco toppings. Top this dish with your favorite taco toppings. This taco casserole with Doritos is so simple and so easy to make, our family loves it!
Ingredients
DORITOS There are so many flavors of Doritos so use your favorite (I usually go for Nacho Cheese)! Try siracha, cool ranch, spicy-sweet chili! FILLING Zesty seasoned ground beef is mixed with sour cream for tang, cheese, salsa (mild or hot!), and a can of condensed soup. It’s extra creamy and flavorful. Use store-bought salsa or try Homemade Salsa or even Pico de Gallo! We prefer homemade taco seasoning but a packet works just fine too. Top it all off with lots of cheese before baking and then pile on all of the typical fixings, including shredded lettuce, tomatoes, olives, and sour cream.

Best Casserole Tips
For crushing the Doritos, place them in a bag and crush them by hand, but not too small. Drain the fat from the ground beef so the casserole is not too runny. Buy pre-shredded cheese to make the assembly easier. Spray the tin foil with cooking oil so it doesn’t stick to the top layer of cheese. Remember to remove this foil for the last 20 minutes. This will help the casserole top layer turns brown and so good.
