Baked Nachos

Hello again, my friends!  As promised, I am back today with a delicious recipe for you.  And, as usual, I am a day late since I told you I'd be back with it yesterday.  Let's be honest, it's all I can do to keep my head above water these days.  Whatevs.

I whipped these up for lunch last week while my parents were here for a visit and they were a hit!  My kids gobbled them right up and they were SO easy to make. I love a win-win.

Baked Nachos

2 lbs. ground beef

taco seasoning

2 cans cream of mushroom soup

1 can RoTel tomatoes

1 bag tortilla chips

shredded cheese

1. Brown ground beef.  Drain any excess fat.  Add taco seasoning, cream of mushroom soup and rotel.  {Phew!  The hard part is done!}

2. In a 9x13 pan layer ingredients:  1/2 of your tortilla chips {broken up slightly}, 1/2 of meat mixture, shredded cheese {as much as you like}, last 1/2 of your tortilla chips {again, broken up}, 1/2 of meat mixture, more shredded cheese.

3. Bake at 350* for about 20 minutes or until heated through and cheese is bubbly.  Serve with sour cream, guacamole and/or whatever other toppings you like.  I think sliced olives and shredded lettuce would have been delicious, too.

See?! Easy cheesy.  It's a perfect week night meal for those busy days when you don't really feel like cooking and it feeds a crowd.  I'd love to hear what your favorite easy meals are.  Leave a comment!
