I don't even have to ask my husband what he wants for dinner because he will usually say the same thing...Mexican Casserole...I tried this recipe and he loved it!! Thought I would share it with everyone and if you try it please let me know how you liked it...:) I posted a picture. I meant to take it before we dug into it but forgot...now you can see what it looks like inside! LOL
1 lb lean ground beef
1 can (15 to 16 oz) spicy chili beans, undrained
1 cup salsa (mild, medium, hot...any of them work)
2 cups broken tortilla chips
1/2 cup reduced fat sour cream
4 medium green onions sliced (1/2 cup)
1 medium tomato, chopped (3/4 cup)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack Cheese (4 oz) I tend to use the mixture of both and I use more than I should...I love cheese..:)
Heat oven to 350. Cook beef in 10 inch skillet over medium heat 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain. Stir in the beans and salsa. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally.
Place broken tortilla chips in ungreased 2 quart casserole. Top with beef mixture. Spread with sour cream. Sprinkle cheese and top with green onions and tomato. Bake uncovered 20 - 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly.

Looks good! We have a lot of something we call Frito Pie (chili cheese fritos, shredded cheese and chili, that's it!) and a lot of tacos and taco salads. I've kind of burnt the family out on mexican type dishes. But I WILL try this one as soon as everyone's ready again!
