My daughter wanted Taco Hell the other night, but I couldn't stand the thought. I dreamed this up and it came out quite decent. Even picky kid complimented it.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 package taco seasoning
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can chili beans, drained & rinsed
1 (8 ounce) package of corn tortillas
1 can ro-tel tomatoes & chile (original)
1 (16 ounce) box velveeta cheese
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Brown and season beef according to seasoning pkg.
3. While beef is cooking, simmer Ro-Tel and Velveeta in a sauce pan over LOW heat until cheese is melted.
4. Do not scorch.
5. Cut up 3/4 of the tortilla shells into bite size pieces.
6. Save the remainder for another use.
7. In a lightly greased 2 quart casserole place a layer of tortilla shells, followed by beef.
8. A layer of shells followed by beans, then another layer of chips.
9. Pour Ro-Tel, Velveeta mix over the top.
10. Place uncovered in oven for thirty minutes.
11. While this is a little spicy, you could easily raise the spice level by using the spicier Ro-Tel or hotter seasoned chili beans or both.
12. Serve with a green salad and you have a meal.
