Jake brought home some leftover Doritos from his work travels last week which is when I decided to try out this new recipe.  I found this Taco Bake recipe that uses Doritos for an extra crunch and flavor on Two Maids a Milking.  I used their recipe with a couple alterations based on what we had in our pantry / fridge and it turned out really well.  The family enjoyed the new recipe and the girls said it was a “keeper”.

Taco Bake

1 1/2 pounds Hamburger
1 package Taco Seasoning
8 oz. Sour Cream
1 package Crescent Rolls (8)
1 can Tomato Sauce
1 can diced Tomatoes with Green Chiles
1 1/2 cups shredded Taco Cheese
1 bag Doritos Chips

Brown hamburger and drain.  Add taco seasoning, can of tomato sauce and can diced tomatoes with green chiles.  Simmer until the excess liquid is gone from the pan.  Grease a 9 x 13 pan and press the crescent rolls on the bottom for the crust.  Put the meat mixture on top crescent rolls followed by the sour cream then add the cheese.  Crush the bag of Doritos chips and sprinkle them across the top of the casserole.  Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

What was left of the Taco Bake after one meal!  It was a hit!
