Cathy's Taco Casserole
Description:Easy main dish or a meal in itself. Add a salad (guacamole is great) and you are set. This is popular with kids too.
Ingredients:1 lb. ground beef1 small onion, chopped1 can green chilis, chopped1 package taco seasoning mix1 small can tomato sauce1 cup watertortilla chips (broken into bite size pieces)grated cheese for topping* 1 can rotel tomatoes (hot as you like them) can be substituted for the green chilis. You may need to cut down the amount of water you use or increase the amount of chips.
Directions:Brown the ground beef in skillet (I use a cast iron skillet so I can use one pan for the oven as well). When the beef is just about done, add the onions and finish cooking until onions are clear. Drain fat.Add the taco seasoning directly to meat and stir well (the fat left on the meat will keep the taco seasoning from clumping when fluids are added). Add green chilis (or Rotels), tomato sauce, and water. Bring just to boil, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add tortilla chips and mix well. The amount of chips added will determine the consistency of the dish...the more you add, the dryer it will become. If you are not using an oven-safe dish, you will need to pour mixture into one. Top with grated cheese and put into oven (350) until cheese melts and casserole begins to bubble again. Serve immediately.
Note: Taco seasoning and chips usually contain enough salt for the dish so use caution if adding extra salt.Number Of Servings:6 normal people , 4 men, 2 big men, or 1 teenage boy
