Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1 can 15 ounces black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can 15 ounces corn, drained
  • 1 can 10 ounces diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 1 packet 1 ounce taco seasoning
  • 3 cups Doritos crushed (any flavor)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and diced onion until the beef is browned and the onion is soft, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
  • Stir in the black beans, corn, diced tomatoes (with juices), and taco seasoning. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until heated through.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed Doritos, 1 cup of cheddar cheese, sour cream, and milk. Mix until well combined.
  • In a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, layer half of the Dorito mixture on the bottom. Top with the beef mixture, then add the remaining Dorito mixture on top.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add sliced jalapeños to the beef mixture or use spicy Doritos.
  • Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option, or use a plant-based meat alternative for a vegetarian version.
