Carla's Notes:
I received this recipe from a co-worker that brings this to potluck get-togethers and it is VERY popular. My family loves it too. Enjoy!

Comments from the Test Kitchen:

This recipe is in the top 5 I have tried on Just A Pinch... seriously!!! It's super duper easy. I followed the directions to the T... and it was perfect!! We served it with corn but it would also be great with a green salad.

My kids are SUPER picky and they loved this too. They love tacos so I knew just adding Doritos, cheese and the sauce... well, WOW. I will be making this again. Its great for a family on a budget.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9 x 12 casserole dish.

Crunch up bag of Doritos and pour into the bottom of the greased pan.

Cook hamburger and onion; drain.

Add taco seasoning and water and cook according to package directions.

Pour hamburger over chips; sprinkle with cheddar cheese.

In a large saucepan, combine the tomato soup, cream of mushroom soup and Rotel. Cook until boiling.

Pour soup mixture over cheese and bake 20-30 minutes until the soup bubbles.

Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.

This looks like a really good casserole. I'm going to make it tomorrow...let you know how it turned out. But I'll use my taco seasoning that has no salt for my benefit.

hi, this sounds pretty good but I don't have "Rotel" in my area (I'm in Maine). I know they make a variety of products because I have seen ads. What am I looking for exactly?

Rotel tomatoes are in a small can near the regular canned tomatoes. The can is about half or two thirds the size of the regular cans, and they are tomatoes,onions and chilies. They have several heat levels, Extra Hot, Hot, and Mild, at least. Plus they have come out with some other products too. If you can't find them in the tomato aisle, try the Mexican specialties section. If all else fails, ask the manager if they carry them. :)OLE
