Ingredients
Scale
Doritos
- 1 bag (approximately 10-12 oz) of Doritos
Ground Beef
- 1 lb of ground beef
Cheddar Cheese
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Enchilada Sauce
- 1 can (10 oz) of enchilada sauce
Sour Cream
- 1 cup of sour cream
Green Onions
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by gathering all your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking once you assemble the casserole.
- Cook the Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat and stir in the enchilada sauce. Let it simmer for a few minutes to meld the flavors.
- Layer the Ingredients: In a baking dish, start with a layer of Doritos, followed by the beef mixture, then a generous sprinkle of cheese. Repeat these layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.
- Bake the Casserole: Place the assembled casserole in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Once out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes. Top with sour cream and green onions before serving to add freshness and flavor.
Notes
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients elevate the flavors, so choose high-quality cheese and fresh veggies.
- Don’t Overcook the Beef: Browning the beef is important, but avoid overcooking to keep it juicy.
- Let it Rest: Allow the casserole to set for a few minutes after baking for easier slicing and serving.
- Experiment with Sauces: Try different sauces like salsa or barbecue sauce for varied flavor profiles.
- Use a Large Baking Dish: Make sure your dish is big enough to accommodate all the layers without spilling over.
