This was delicious! 

Doritos Taco Bake

This recipe caught my eye on pinterest because it had doritos in it. My brother loves doritos and can eat a whole bag at one sitting so we always had doritos in the house growing up.

1 lb. hamburger

1 pkg. taco seasoning

8 oz. sour cream

1 pkg. crescent rolls (8)

1 can tomato sauce

1 can diced tomatoes (optional)

1 c. shredded cheese

Dorito chips

Brown meat and drain fat. Add diced tomatoes, taco seasoning, tomato sauce and a small amount of water. Simmer. 

Put crescent rolls in bottom of 9x13 baking dish. 

Layer meat mixture then sour cream. 

Next put cheddar cheese and crushed up doritos. 

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. 

It was pretty good. Mike didn't like it the first night because the chips were really crunchy, but he took the left overs to work the next day and said it was better the 2nd day. I liked the crunchy chips. You win some, you lose some. HA!

Burrito Casserole

It was almost 7pm and I had no idea what to make for dinner. I had a pound of ground beef in the fridge so I decided to make hamburger helper. Well, we didn't have any milk so that idea didn't last long. So I hopped on Pinterest and searched to see what I could make with my already browned meat. It didn't take me long to find this recipe for Burrito casserole.

1 lb ground beef

1 (1.25 oz) package taco seasoning

6 flour tortillas

1 (16oz) can refried beans

2-3 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 can cream of mushroom soup

4 ounces sour cream

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix mushroom soup and sour cream. 

Spread mix into bottom of baking dish. Tear up 3 tortillas and place on top. 

Brown meat and drain off grease. Add taco seasoning and refried beans. Mix well. 

Place half of the bean meat mix as next layer in baking dish. Repeat layers again. 

Put cheese on top and bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes.

It was so good. Mike took one bite and said 'this is awesome' and I think the fact that he made me take a picture of him like this proves it's really good.
