One of my favorite blogs, Sing For Your Supper posted this recipe a couple of months ago. She says that the recipe is from her mom, so I was immediately interested in it. A while back, I made her mom’s no bake stuffed peppers and they were divine. They went into my special recipe folder of recipes I want to keep forever. I love Mexican food, so I was really looking forward to trying this recipe! Well, her mom didn’t let me down, this recipe was a winner too!
Easy Mexican Casserole
Source: Sing For Your Supper
1 pound ground beef
1 can Ranch Style beans
1 10-12 ounce bag tortilla chips, crushed
1 can Ro-tel tomatoes (I used the hot version)
1 small onion, chopped
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
1 package taco seasoning
1 can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup water
sour cream and salsa for serving
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large skillet, brown meat and drain off fat. Stir in the beans, Rotel, onion, taco seasoning, soup, & water. Simmer over medium-low heat until everything is combined and heated through. Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan. Put a layer of crushed tortilla chips in pan, followed by a layer of the meat & bean mixture, then half of the cheddar cheese. Repeat layers. Cover with foil and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until bubbly. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve with sour cream and salsa.

We’ve been making this – a VERY close variation , anyway – for years in my family. We’ve never layered it and I can’t wait to try this !! I like to use the sour cream and salsa in addition to shredded iceberg lettuce , a bit like a taco salad – type dish. IT is a
Awesome recipe! Steps were easy to follow and my casserole turned out well!
This sounds delicious The only thing is I don’t know what Ranch Style Beans are Can you explain please
I had never used them before either. I found them next to all the other canned beans at the grocery store. They were labeled ranch style beans.
Made this last night, really liked it so did my boyfriend I’ll have to write this recipe down for future dinners. Added pickled jalepanos sour cream and hot sauce at end. Great dinner
Glad you liked it!
I made this for supper tonight and it was very good! I didn’t have enough tortilla chips so I added some cheddar and sour cream chips and it was good! I would have liked the beans but my husband and son may not have so I left them out. I’ll definitely make this again, thanks for the recipe!
Glad it was a hit!
What size beans the small can or the large one?
Small can
I’m sorry, it was a 21 oz can.
This was amazing! I didn’t have ranch beans, so used a can of Bush’s Grillen Black bean Fiesta.. used my homemade salsa for topper with the sour cream. Was very, very good. Will recommend to friends.
Glad you liked it!
