Mexican Casserole

How to make Mexican Casserole

1 pound lean ground beef

15 ounce can ranch-style beans

1 can diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained

1 can condensed cream of mushroom or chicken soup

12 ounce package corn tortillas

4 cups shredded cheese

3 tablespoons Taco Seasoning

1 bag Tortilla Chips on the side if desired

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Brown ground beef in a large skillet over medium high heat. Drain excess fat if desired.

After beef is browned, add taco seasoning, beans, diced tomatoes/green chilies, and soup. Mix well and heat.

In a 13×9 baking dish, cover bottom of the dish with about a cup of meat mixture.

Top this mixture with a single layer of corn tortillas.

Put 1/2 of the remaining meat mixture on top of the tortilla layer and then cover with cheese.

Repeat a layer of corn tortillas.

Place remaining meat mixture on top and finish off with the remaining cheese.

Bake in a preheated oven for 30 minutes, uncovered.

Serve with tortilla chips if desired.
