Here’s a slight twist on the traditional taco casserole recipe.
The cheesy potatoes add another level of flavor to the tasty
beef and seasoned cheese. Run for the border indeed!

pound ground beef 1 package au gratin potatoes 2 cups
boiling water 2/3 cup milk 1 cup shredded taco-seasoned cheese 1
cup coarsely broken tortilla chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cook beef in 10-inch skillet over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes,
stirring occasionally, until brown; drain.

Mix uncooked potatoes, sauce mix, boiling water and milk in
ungreased 2-quart round casserole. Stir in beef and cup of
cheese.

Bake uncovered 30 minutes or until top is light golden brown.
Sprinkle chips over casserole; sprinkle remaining cheese over
chips.

Bake 3 to 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Let stand
2 minutes before serving.
