88 All-Time Best Dinner Recipes

Not enough ingredients in this version imo. I've been making my version since I was 20 yrs old. 1-1 1/2 lb ground beef, Diced onion, Little garlic or garlic paste, (Green or red pepper, opt...we never add this), Cumin and Chili Powder OR a little mild taco seasoning (don't make it like you're making tacos, just a little for a little more flavor). Salt and pepper Saute everything, drain. Add: Can of drained corn, Can of cream of mushroom soup, Rotel (mild or spicy, do NOT drain), Cup of cooked white rice, 1/3-1/2 can of refried beans (trust me...it's great mixed in) OR canned black beans (drained and rinsed) if you prefer. Handful or two of cubed Velveeta Handful or two of shredded cheese (whatever you like: cheddar...mild or sharp, Mexican blend, taco blend, colby-jack, pepper jack, etc), Opt: couple dollops of sour cream (you can add a little to the casserole for even more creaminess OR just add some when serving), Opt: black olives (IN the casserole or as a topping only). Mix very well, let the cheeses melt, pour into a sprayed 13 by 9 casserole dish, top with more cheese of your choice, cubed Velveeta, and a few handfuls of crushed Doritoes (we use the original flavor...use what you love). Bake at 325, 30-35 min, until golden and melty on top. Serve with more Doritos, side of refried beans, sour cream, a little chopped...crispy lettuce, diced tomatoes or salsa. Next time I make this I'll try to remember to get a pic and post it. I've been making this about once a month for about 32 yrs. My daughter's favorite supper (1st food she requested after boot-camp for family weekend :)
