This is a versatile dinner. Nothing gourmet - just cheap, fast and easy. You can substitute what you have on hand. Don’t have kidney beans- I have use cannellini beans or black beans. Only have a 1/2 pound of ground beef- that works too- just add an extra can of beans. My family loves this. Ingredients:
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained |
1 lb ground beef or 1 lb turkey |
1 tablespoon minced onion flakes |
1 tablespoon chili powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon cumin |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon oregano |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
15 ounces tomato sauce |
3 cups tortilla chips |
1 -2 cup shredded cheese (mexican blend or cheddar) |
shredded lettuce (optional) |
sour cream (optional) |
salsa (optional) |
Directions:
1. Cook ground beef until done and drain.
2. Combine beans, seasonings, and tomato sauce in the skillet with the meat.
3. Stir and simmer it for a few minutes.
4. When hot, place in a 9 by 13 pan.
5. Sprinkle with cheese and top with tortilla chips.
6. Push some of the chips down into the meat mixture (but not all the chips as they will get soggy).
7. Bake at 400° for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
8. We like to serve ours on a bed of lettuce. topped with salsa and sour cream.
