Dorito Casserole with Ground Beef

recip


  1. Spread half of the crushed Doritos evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  2. Spoon half of the beef mixture over the Doritos, spreading it into an even layer.
  3. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheese over the beef layer.
  4. Repeat the layers: another layer of crushed Doritos, the remaining beef mixture, and the remaining cheese.

4. Bake Until Bubbly

  1. Bake the casserole for 20–25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  2. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.

5. Garnish and Serve

  1. Top with optional garnishes like sour cream, guacamole, salsa, or chopped green onions.
  2. Serve warm with extra Doritos on the side for added crunch.

Serving Suggestions

  • For Game Day: Serve alongside wings, sliders, or dips for the ultimate spread.
  • At Family Dinners: Pair with a side salad, corn on the cob, or Spanish rice for a complete meal.
  • As Leftovers: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat gently in the microwave.
  • Meal Prep: Assemble the casserole ahead of time, cover, and refrigerate until ready to bake.

Pro Tips for Success

  • Crush the Chips Lightly: Leave some larger pieces for texture—they’ll soften slightly but still provide crunch.
  • Use Different Flavors: Try Nacho Cheese, Cool Ranch, or Spicy Sweet Chili Doritos for a unique twist.
  • Add Veggies: Stir in black beans, corn, or bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrition.
  • Make It Extra Cheesy: Use a mix of cheeses, like cheddar, Monterey Jack, and queso fresco, for maximum gooeyness.
