Ingredients
- 1 bag nacho cheese Doritos crushed
- 1/4 cup yellow onion chopped
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 cup mild salsa
- 1 packet mild taco seasoning
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 bunch fresh cilantro chopped
- 1 can black beans
- 1 can black olives
- 1 cup bell pepper chopped
- 2 cups Mexican cheese blend shredded
- coconut oil cooking spray for the baking dish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a baking dish with coconut oil cooking spray and put a layer of crushed Doritos in the bottom.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with the onion and taco seasoning until browned, 7 to 9 minutes. Check that the ground beef reaches 160°F with a food thermometer.
- Add the salsa and sour cream to the cooked beef and simmer over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in some of the cilantro, reserving some for layering.
- Over the bottom chips, layer the meat mixture and some of the cheese. Add the black beans, black olives, bell pepper and remaining cilantro. Add another layer of cheese and a top layer of Doritos.
- Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 10 to 15 minutes. Before serving, check the center with a food thermometer; a casserole must reach 165°F. Continue baking if it has not reached that temperature.
Notes
The published prep, cook and total figures do not account reliably for cooking the beef followed by the 10-to-15-minute bake; allow time for both steps. Foil softens the top chips. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in shallow, covered containers; use within 3 to 4 days and reheat to 165°F.
