This will get rave reviews from the family. It's easy, novel and filling. Serve with Spanish Rice and refried beans. Que Bueno! Ingredients:
1 lb lean ground beef |
1 package taco seasoning mix |
1 cup water |
1 medium onion, chopped |
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped |
4 ounces taco sauce |
3 ounces cream cheese |
8 ounces corn kernels |
4 ounces sliced olives |
1 bag fritos corn chips, 10 ounce size |
2 cups mexican blend cheese, shredded |
tomato, diced |
green onion, diced |
sour cream |
shredded lettuce |
Directions:
1. Brown the ground beef with the onions and garlic. 2. When all the pink is out of the meat add the seasoning mix, water, cream cheese, corn, 1/2 the olives and Taco sauce. 3. Let this simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. 4. Crush the Fritos chips (I used the chili flavored ones, but plain will work fine). 5. In an 8x12 casserole dish, layer 1/2 of the Fritos, then 1/2 the meat filling, and then 1/2 the cheese (regular cheddar will work also, I just prefer the combined cheese flavors). 6. Repeat the layers and top with the remaining olives. 7. Bake at 375° for 20-25 minutes, or until it is warmed completely and the cheese is melted. 8. To serve, you can top with shredded lettuce, the diced green onions (tops included), diced tomatoes and a shot of the sour cream. |
