As I was preparing this dish, I had no idea if it would be a huge hit or an epic fail. I was nervous because I did not have a back up dish, but I trusted my instinct that this would be good, and boy oh boy, was it amazing! The best part is, if you are a Doritos lover as my family is, you probably already have a bag of those at home, plus the rest of the ingredients which are so basic and simple. Not only is this absolutely amazing, but it is cheap and feeds a crowd. That is amazing, if you ask me!
Check out what our friends over at Aunt Bee’s Recipes had to say about this:
This casserole is not spicy at all and even my picky 5 year old gobbled it right up. I topped mine with some fresh from the garden diced jalapeno because I like more of a kick, and lots of lettuce and tomato to make it ‘healthy’
There are so many ways to switch up this dish and you can get two or three meals out of it. That’s awesome for a busy mom!
