Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion chopped finely
- 1 package taco seasoning
- ½ cup water
- 1 can black beans 15 ounces, drained and rinsed
- 1 can diced tomatoes with green chiles 10 ounces
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 bag Fritos corn chips 9.25 ounces
- 2 cups Mexican-style shredded cheese
Toppings
- green onions sliced
- sour cream
- guacamole
- salsa
- jalapeños
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 13x9 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large skillet, brown ground beef until almost done. Then add onions and cook until they are soft and the meat is no longer pink.
- Stir in taco seasoning and water and heat to boiling.
- Reduce heat and stir in beans, diced tomatoes with chiles, and sour cream. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until heated and the mixture slightly thickens.
- Add a single layer of corn chips to the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheese on top. Then add a layer of the ground beef mixture. Finish the casserole off with the remaining cheese.
- Cover it with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Then remove the foil and continue baking for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the casserole is bubbly around the edges.
- Remove from oven and top with more corn chips and your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Use lean ground beef. Ground turkey or chicken also works well in this recipe.
- Feel free to change the beans and use kidney beans, pinto beans, or another choice in this recipe.
- Add your favorite taco toppings. Green onions, jalapenos, olives, extra cheese, and salsa are all excellent choices.
- You can put this together in the morning, store it in the fridge and bake it at dinner time. Add 5-10 minutes to the cooking time if the casserole has been refrigerated.
- Leftovers will keep for about 4 days in the fridge.
