A simple meal to whip up in less than an hour that even the kids are sure to love. Layers of seasoned ground beef, corn, tortilla chips and cheese are baked under a layer of Colby cheese. Monterey Jack is also good in place of the Colby cheese.

Beef Nacho Casserole

beef

chunky salsa

(10 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained

creamy salad dressing (e.g. Miracle Whip)

chili powder

tortilla chips

Colby cheese

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).


Place ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until evenly browned. Drain grease. Remove from the heat, and stir the salsa, corn, mayonnaise and chili powder into the beef. In  a 2 quart casserole dish, layer the ground beef mixture, tortilla chips and cheese twice, ending with cheese on top.


Bake for 20 minutes uncovered in the preheated oven, until cheese is melted and dish is thoroughly heated.


DELICIOUS! I did make a quite a few changes though. First, I sauteed some onion in with my ground beef. I used Mexicorn, and instead of the Miracle Whip, I used just over 1/2 cup of  fat free sour cream instead. I also used a packet of taco seasoning rather than the chili powder. In my pantry, there were some refried black beans I wanted to get rid of, and I figured this would be a good way to do that. Boy, was I right! I layered it on top of the beef mixture in my 9x13. For the crushed chips, I used Fritos rather than tortilla chips, and last but not least, I used 2 cups of Mexican cheeses rather than just Colby. In essence, I guess I changed almost everything about the recipe. LOL! But it was DELICOIUS! Ally

I have been looking for this recipe.  My mom used to make it when I was young.  But she passed away, and never had any of her recipes written down.  Suggestion:  The recipes your family loves please write them down so if one day something happens they will be able to re-create your delicious food, and have pleasant memories when eating it.

Um, HELLO!!! Of course this isn't real "Nachos"!  It says CASSEROLE in the title....honestly, this is pretty good, but do sub. sour cream for the Miracle Whip.

I really wish people would review recipes AS THEY ARE WRITTEN. If I see you put as the first word DELICIOUS I assume the recipe is really good. But then I go through it and everything about the recipe has been changed...use some common sense people. Review the recipe as it is and then maybe state what you did differently.

I tried this recipe but made a few alterations.  First, I substituted ground beef with ground turkey.  Always a healthier choice.  Then I replaced chili powder with 2 tbsp. of taco seasoning.  I also reduced the salsa to 1 cup &amp; added 1 can of black beans in with the corn.  Instead of 3/4 mayo I used 1/2 cup of sour cream &amp; 1 heaping tbsp. of mayo.  Once complete, this was really easy to make and so good!  I totally loved it!  My husband said it tasted like Nachos Grande.  It's also is a good recipe if you have broken up pieces of nacho chips left at the end of a bag.  I found the smaller more crumbled up pieces filled it in great.
Thanks for the new recipe!  

I used Rotel instead of salsa and did not add corn. I seasoned the beef with taco seasoning and cooked a chopped onion and garlic to the meat while browning it. I also used half sour cream and half mayo. Very easy to make and the bf loved it.

great taste, and the miracle whip gave it even more zip!  loved the peppers, onions, etc that were in it from the chunky salsa.  easy recipe and i will definitely be making this again.  i do have to say that next time i will cover it will aluminum foil because the cheese on top became hard and crusty.  thanks!  yum!

I agree with another review.  This is ridiculous that people rate recipes according to how they completely modify it from the original.  Please follow the original recipe first and then make suggestions!!!

This is a casserole but it is definitely not nachos.  Miracle Whip has no place in Nachos, and neither does corn.

Loved it. After reading all of the other reviews, I made some changes - I added onion to my ground chuck, used 1/2 cup Miracle Whip and 1/4 cup sour cream, 2 tsp. chili powder and 2 tsp. of Tastefully Simple's "Fiesta Party Dip" mix (it was what I had on hand!) and Nacho Cheese Doritos instead of plain tortilla chips. The whole family loved it, it was quick and easy and will certainly be made again!

This was pretty good. I used sour cream instead of mayo, taco seasoning instead of the chili powder, and Barbecue Fritos instead of tortilla chips. Hubby is now on his 3rd bowl. It would be really good with some refried beans and put inside a warm tortilla!

I made this with sour cream and miracle whip, also added onion to the ground beef.

hands down out of every single recipe i've use on allrecipes . com this is the one i'm most famous for. I'ts awesome just how it is... but my spouse prefers onion instead of corn so i cook that in with the ground beef. I have given this recipe out to soooo many ppl. I know it's not pretty in the pan, but once layered and baked it is AMAZING

We really liked this one!  I had to change it for what I had, I used a can and a half of Rotel instead of salsa (drained it a little bit) and used cheddar cheese.  A keeper for sure.  Next time I might sub Ranch Dressing for the mayo just to kick it around it a bit.  VERY yummy!

Hubby and Son whom I made this for liked it very much. I tasted it before baking and I was just a tad put off by the over powering taste of salad dressing. But didn't say nothing to them. Baked and out of the oven. It was nicer in flavor then it was before I put it in. But will say, it was a tad runny and could totally use less salad dressing and more spice. I had to use Cool Ranch Dortios because hubby ate the plain ones. Go figure. However, I totally liked this best next morning out of the frig...it had that nice casserole flavor and I liked it better cold. But I would make again with adjustments of less salad dressing, more chili powder and more crushed chips.

This was delicious and simple to make.  I did make the following changes: 1) Added a packet of taco seasoning to the beef 2) Added a chopped onion to the ground beef while cooking 3) Used sour cream instead of the mayo.  You would think the chips get soggy, but they don't!  This tastes just as good leftover too!

My kids loved this! My daughter said she may even have me make this for her Birthday dinner instead of going out to a restaurant to eat. Wow...that's a real compliment. :) From other suggestions, I cooked an onion with the ground beef, used 1/4 C mayo and 1/2 C of sour cream for the mixture, and used 2 TBSP of taco seasoning instead of the chili powder. Great recipe, thanks!

Just finished eating another bowl of this a few minutes ago.  VERY, VERY good and super easy to make. I made a couple of substitutions, however, because I wanted to use up some stuff in the fridge and lighten the fat and calorie factors.  

First, I used up some turkey/beef mix I was saving in the freezer to make burgers later.  It had some onions, garlic, salt &amp; pepper, and some gluten free bread crumbs in it. Then I used a packet of Simply Organic Southwest Taco mix instead of just the chili powder, a 6oz container of 0% fat free Greek style yogurt with about 2 tbsp of organic full fat sour cream, a mix of purple tortilla chips and baked lentil-azuki bean chips (got these from Trader Joe's--the lentil chips actually stayed crispier than the tortilla chips), frozen corn and some freshly chopped zucchini that needed to be used, only 1 cup salsa, and lower fat, shredded mexican style cheese.  

The result was all yums!  Leftovers for dinner and lunch tomorrow!  Hooray.

Wow this was quick and easy.  We loved it!  Made it in less than an hour.  Its really filling too.  Thanks for the new recipe.  I've used two new recipe's this week.

I don't think I'd make this as written, but it's a good base recipe. I could only give it 3 stars because I made a lot of changes,which were excellent. I filled a 9x13 pan with layers, baking at 350 for the same amount of time directed. 

First, I used approx. 2.5 lbs hamburger (that was the size it came in), cooked with a lg chopped onion, 2 pkts taco seasoning, water, salt, pepper, dried diced garlic, and cayenne pepper. To that, I added (still on heat) 2 cans drained corn, 2 cans black beans (not drained), 1 can diced green chiles (not drained), and approx. 1.5 cups each of medium and mild chunky salsas. Since the pan's contents already had created a nice sauce, I added 1 c. plain Greek yogurt (unnecessary)(I wanted to save my sour cream for serving on top). I didn't want to use Miracle Whip, which sounded greasy and gross. I took the opportunity to use up 3 bags worth of tortilla chip crumbs (you know, the little pieces toward the end of the bag that are too little to dip) that I had been saving for an occasion like this.  I layered twice as directed (meat mixture, chips, cheese), using about 6 cups of various shredded cheeses (sharp cheddar, taco blend, pizza blend, etc.)(wanted to use up a few opened packages).  All of this filled my 9x13 pan.  I served it cut into large squares with a large dollop of sour cream and some salsa.  My teenage son and my parents raved over it, looking forward to any leftovers. I must say, it was absolutely delicious.  I'll make this again!!

My husband loved this. I followed some of the other reviewers suggestions but I don't think some of the changes should be made..... 
I used rotel tomatoes instead of salsa. Next time I will defiantly use salsa.
I used taco seasoning and chili powder abt 1.5tbs.
I added black beans and had to use frozen corn since I didn't have any canned corn. 
Instead of the creamy salad dressing, I used 3/4cup of fat free plain yogurt and about 2tbs of light sour cream. It tasted great (I don't care of plain fat free yogurt by itself) but I would like it a little creamier. So I will probably use 1/2c yogurt and 1/2cup sour cream since the sour cream is thicker. 
I cooked green onions with the ground turkey.
All in all it was very good. I think it would be great exactly as the recipe is written but I wanted to make it a little healthier. By the way, the chips stated crunchy. I was afraid they would get soggy but they didn't.

To a previous reviewer - I was given some very good advice a long time ago:  "Never try a new recipe, for the first time, when you are in a hurry, or making it for company.  Something will go wrong about 99% of the time!"

SOO GOOD! I did a couple of things differently such as using sour cream instead of Miracle Whip &amp; didn't have any chili powder on hand. Made some beans &amp; cheese, &amp; mexican rise for the sides. Hmmm. It was the best homemade mexican dinner!

Love, love this casserole. so simple and easy.  i made it exactly as it was written. my grandson is a very picky eater but loved this and had 2nds.  next time i will add a spin of my own. will use my homemade salsa, homemade tortilla chips, all in all it is a great dish. thanks

The only change I made was added a layer of refried beans.  My 3 year old practically licked her plate!  Will be making again, with the beans.

Followed recipe exact besides using 1/4 sour cream and the rest miracle whip. My 2 year old ate it up and so did my husband. Will make this again :)

I used less mayo and salsa than the recipe called for mainly because I didn't have enough ha! And added jalapeno's to the meat mixture. I liked this more as I ate it but initially wasn't a huge fan. Next time I will try half sour cream and half mayo. Maybe add some chili!

Awesome, quick meal.  I too changed the miracle whip to sour cream ...can also use greek yogurt.Added black beans too.  I use Tostitos new Black Bean whole grain chips....it was delish!! Salad on the side. AThanks

Well I make some changes due to diet restrictions--low fat, low sodium and no MSG. It's still a good recipe. I added cumin, garlic powder and onion powder and occasionally throw in some pinto or kidney beans for fiber or instant brown rice if the low sodium chips have been eaten already. It's easy, fast, filling and relatively cheap and leftovers are great the next day, if there are any leftovers. Sorry I can't eat it as written but guess it one of prices you pay if you live long enough.

Recently found a 'natural' sour cream at Kroger. It's very low sodium so I use instead of regular sour cream or salad dressing.

Yum! Subbed taco seasoning for chili powder and sour cream for mayo. Love it. Wish I had thrown in some onion and pepper, but still really good. Hit with the kids!

Editing to add: made it a third time today, but had no sour cream and didn't feel like going to store, so I used mayo, even though it still sounds weird to me. But it is just as good! Did a layer of refried beans between the meat and chips layer and threw some green onion, green pepper and leftover corn on top. Yum! Looks pretty too! :)

I give this one only 4 stars because of all the modifications. The base idea was great though. I used a can of rotel, 3/4ths cup of sour cream, and taco seasoning instead of chili powder. I also used turkey instead of beef to cut calories, and sauteed a clove of garlic and 1/2 cup of onion with the turkey. In addition, I used 2 small corn tortillas for a top layer with a thin layer of cheese to help bring out the flavor of the tortilla chips and it was awesome!

This is a supereasy and tasty recipe.  I made one substitution just to make it healthier.  I substituted nonfat greek yogurt for mayo.  I also used baked tortilla chips.  I didn't have colby cheese so I used cheddar instead and it was super yummy!

I added sour cream in place of the mayo and added red kidney beans - yum!

I took so many suggestions from other reviewers, that the only ingredient that remained the same in this recipe was the ground beef. 

These were my substitutions:  1 can Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilis), 1 can Fiesta or Mexicorn, 3/4 sour cream, 1 packet taco seasoning, 2 cups corn chips, 2 cups mexican shredded cheese.  It had a little zip to it, but if our 2 year old wasn't eating it, I would have used "hot" taco seasoning.  My husband and I topped our servings with sour cream and jalepeno slices with extra corn chips on the side.  We both had seconds.  This will be made again and again!  I give my recipe 5 stars!  Thanks reviewers!

I thought this was very good. My husband liked it as well. I don't think I would change anything about it. Except definitely use sour cream instead of miracle whip.

After reading the reviews from this site, I made the following changes.  First, I skipped the corn altogether (my husband despises it, and I wasn't in the mood to argue with him!)  I used 1/2 cup lite Miracle Whip and 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream; I finely chopped some onion and grated 2 cloves of fresh garlic, then added them to the cooking ground beef; I used a combination of reduced-fat cheeses (I think any types of cheese that you and your family like would work just as well here.)  I  also crushed 2 cups of Nacho Cheese Doritos for this, but next time, I think I will use barbecued Fritos (if only there were low-fat Doritos and Fritos, we'd have it made!)  Even with my attempts to make this dish a lower fat recipe, it was absolutely delicious! My husband had two large helpings, and the rest of the family polished it off!  Thank you, Lunch*Lady for submitting such a quick, easy and delish recipe!

excellent recipe.  I used the sour cream like other reviewers recommended, and I also added a can of green chilis.  I used medium hot southwestern style salsa, with corn and black beans, which really added some extra chunkiness and heat.

This was great and easy.  I made it vegetarian by substituting refried beans and black beans for the beef.  Will be making this again.

This recipe was a good starting point for me.  I changed quite a bit and it turned out okay.  Not anything to make when I want to impress but it was pretty tastey.  Some of the changes were out of convenience/health and some where preference.
I used ground turkey instead of beef.  I didn't use salsa at all.  I used no fat sour cream instead of mayo (it just sounded too weird!).  I used a packet of taco seasoning instead of chili powder.  I used whole grain chips, which I would probably change if I made this again.  And lastly I added 1 can of fat free refried beans.  There was about 2 cups of the beef mixture left over and I used that to dip tortilla chips in later.  My concoction turned out pretty well.  Good luck!

Made this for lunch today and it was AWESOME!  I added commerical taco seasoning to the ground beef.  I had some leftover Black Beans, Corn and Yellow Rice (recipe here on AR) so I added that as one of the layers instead of just corn.  I used a Mexican cheese blend for the cheese and Hint of Jalapeno tortilla chips.

This made a good comfort food dish.  Quick and easy, it's perfect for a middle of the week kind of meal.  I did make changes however - mainly due to what I had in the kitchen.  I used hot salsa, added a packet of hot taco seasoning (w/o water) to the beef, as well as some garlic powder.  I didn't have any corn (travesty, really) and used colby-jack cheese.  Yummy!

Not one of the best for my family, my husband didn't care for it. Maybe with a few changes it would be better.

Great meal. I took Ally's suggestions an added whole black beans, replaced the miracle whip (never cared for) with sour cream and used Colby jack and mexicorn and added onions to the burger. The suggestions always help. I'm glad I read them before I start a recipe!

Very yummy and smells great while cooking too!  Instead of the corn, I added 1 can of drained black beans to the meat, and used sour cream instead of the mayo.  Along with the chili powder, I added about 1.5 tsp of garlic powder and a pinch or two of salt.  I used the nacho flavored shredded cheese and topped the casserole with chopped chili peppers.  Great quick meal!

My family loved it...used sour cream in place of mayo. will make again and will use more layers and increase the amount of tortilla chips.

My family really liked this recipe. I did make a few changes. i add ranch dressing instead of the mircle whip and i add black beans. 

My whole family of nine loved this which is a difficult assignment in itself.  I didn't bake it, as we don't use the oven in the summer, but it (doubled recipe with added black beans) turned out great in the crockpot on low for about five hours (I think).  Used 2/3 sour cream and 1/3 mayo.  My opinion because the chips absorbed whatever liquid was in there, it turned out with the consistency of tamales. Great recipe!  Will make again!

O.K. - I made some changes (I always do), so I rated it w/ the changes I made.  First, I despise Miracle Whip, so I substituted with ½ cup of sour cream and ¼ cup of spicy ranch dressing (Hidden Valley makes it).  I cooked the beef with onion and substituted the chili power w/ taco seasoning &amp; cilantro. I added black beans, black olives, and green chilies; for the salsa I used ½ cup of jarred salsa and then ½ cup of homemade salsa with ingredients right from my friend’s garden (fresh cilantro, red onion, garlic &amp; tomatoes)- so that salsa will be hard to recreate again, BUT it really added something to the dish.  Finally, I sprayed the entire mixture with fresh lime juice and a bit of red pepper flakes. I used Mexican blend cheese and the “hint of lime” tortilla chips.  It got good reviews from the fam. It also makes a great dish to take for lunches throughout the week. Also, if you take out the chip layer, it could easily be a layered chip dip.  Thanks so much for the idea!!!

This casserole was so simple to make.  Under 30 minutes!!  I replaced the mayo with SOUR CREAM (only 1/2 cup) and the taste was much more in line with a mexican meal.  I also used a taco seasoning packet to give it my pizazz and diced up black olives because I had them.  I also offered additional chips on the side.  This would also be a great party dip!

I added onion to the ground beef and used taco seasoning instead of chili powder. I also substituted sour cream instead of miracle whip. My family loved this dish and it was so easy to prepare. Thank you so much for this recipe :)

A good alternative to just plain nachos for dinner. :-) I used ground turkey, whole grain chips, and subbed sour cream per other reviews. Also halved the ingredients and it fit well in an 8x8 pan. Next time I plan to add black beans, more spices, and use more finely grated cheese.

I love nachos and this def was a dish I had to make, my boyfriend hates mayo but def loved this recipe

My husband and son (age 16) liked this a lot.  To me it was just okay.  However, I liked it a lot better by putting it on a bed of shredded lettuce!

1 tsp of chili powder is not enough seasoning. I added extra cumin, chili powder, paprika and pepper. I used half mayo / sour cream. I couldnt taste either so dont be afraid to use mayo! Loved the corn in it too. We had whole grain nacho chips. They have loads of flavour too.  This is a good family size casserole. 

This was wonderful!  I used Taco Seasoning instead of Chili Powder and corn chips instead of tortilla chips and gave it more of a Mexican flavor.

This was good but could be better.  Next time I will use sour cream instead of Miracle Whip.  The Miracle Whip gave it a funny sweet taste.  As others suggested, I might try taco seasoning instead of chili powder.

My family loves this recipe!  I decrease the mayonnaise and add a can of black beans (rinsed well) for extra nutrition.  We like spicy so I combine hot and medium salsas and add a bit of hot taco sauce too!

This was so tasty!  I used sour cream, colby jack cheese and taco seasoning.  My husband had two helpings and loved it!  

Was tasty and easy enough to prepare.  I did however take the advice of others and add taco seasoning to the beef, I also used half miracle whip and half sour cream used chedder cheese and enjoyed.

This is really pretty good, with some adjustments.  Kilty, give it a break, nobody said a thing about it being from Mexico.  I used taco seaoning, sour cream, and chili beans.  Also, some hot sauce on the side.  A cold beer is also a good idea.

I'm rating this recipe as it is written.  We are not fans of Miracle Whip.  I didn't follow all the ingredients so I give it 3 stars.  But as I prepared it, I give it 5 stars all the way!!!!  This was so delicious.  My family LOVED it.  Especially one of my picky eaters.  Even the other picky eater tried it, and that was a huge step for him.  But I made some adjustments to fit our palates.  I didn't use corn, Miracle whip, or chili powder.  Instead, I used lean ground turkey, 1/2 chunky salsa and 1/2 mild taco sauce to my liking (not sure of the measurements, but I didn't want it runny).  I used about 2 heaping Tbsp of fat free sour cream and 2 heaping Tbsp of plain greek yogurt.  I used 1 packet of Taco Bell taco seasoning, and Mild cheddar and Monterey Jack shredded cheese.  When I layered it, I started with the crushed chips, meat sauce, cheese.  Then chips again, meat sauce, a few finely crushed chips, then cheese and topped it off with some sliced black olives.  This will definitely be our new "Taco Tuesday" dish.  YUMM-O!!!!

The recipe would have been good but the Miracle Whip was overwhelming...I feel that you should rate recipes as written.  I will try this again but follow other's advice and use sour cream in place of the Miracle Whip.

I love it. I use ground turkey instead of beef. I use a half of jar of taco sauce instead of salsa and 1/4 cup of miracle whip. I add cumin, onion powder, garlic powder and chili powder because ground turkey requires a lot more seasoning than beef. I serve this with salad on the side or a vegetable. Yum.

We all thought this was good.  Definately don't try to use leftover chips that are a little stale.  I thought they would be okay but still tasted stale.  Will definately make again!

This was good, the whole family liked it.  I followed the advice of other reviewers and used sour cream in place of salad dressing.  I tasted the meat mixture before assembling the casserole and found that I wanted more seasoning.  Added Mexene and cumin a little at a time until I was happy with it.  The biggest change I made was omitting the corn only because I had fresh corn on the cob I had planned to serve.  I will certainly make this again and will include the corn.  Thanks!

I made several changes myself: I added sour cream instead of Miracle Whip (gross), fresh cilantro, cumin, chili powder, taco seasoning, red pepper flakes, and a can of refried beans into the mixture.  I used Kraft's Taco Cheese instead of colby, as well.  I topped it off with sliced black olives and fresh tomatoes, placed foil on the top, and baked for 25 minutes.  YUM!  Definitely will make again!  All my friends LOVED it.

My husband has declared this his favorite casserole. My 2 and 3 yr old loved it too. I did sub sour cream for the miracle whip.

Very good! I used a cheesy taco packet after browning the meat. Then I used sour cream instead of the mayo after reading reviews. This was a hit with the whole family.

One of my family's favs (without the corn kernals).

This is such an afforadable dish that will keep well if your family doesn't mind leftovers (and I like to have them for my lunches at work). Very yummy, quick economical dinner on those worknights when you want a quick meal.

This is OK for being so easy, but I would definitely try some of the other reviewers recommendations before I would try it again. I will try to substitute the mayo for sour cream, try taco seasoning instead of chili powder and cover the casserole when in the oven so that the cheese doesn't turn hard.

This is similiar to a recipe that was a favorite of our boys when they were young.  I use ranch dressing instead of mayo/salad dressing and like it much better.  Pepper jack cheese works well too or any leftover graded cheese you have in the frig.

Yum! The leftovers were gone before I could even think to eat them! I added an onion while I cooked the meat. This one's a keeper. 

Easy and quick. A good dinner for the working mom!

I like this recipe. The nachos give the dish great texture, and if you have kids helping you in the kitchen, they can help crush the chips. Also, the corn is a good addition to the meat mixture. It makes the meat layer more filling without as much meat. Also good for color too. All in all, this dish was fun to make, serve, and enjoy, and my husband liked it better than Ortega's enchilada casserole that I used to make about once a month. One other plus...I liked that this recipe called for salsa rather than enchilada sauce because sometimes my grocery store doesn't have enchilada sauce in stock, and it's never a bad thing to have leftover chips and salsa. Yum.

My family REALLY enjoyed this dish! My husband loves tacos, but I hate the mess. With this casserole, we both got what we wanted! Our 14 year old Loved it too!  I used sour cream instead of the salad dressing, taco seasoning instead of the chili powder, sauteed an onion with the beef, and added 1/2 can of black beans. I also had some leftover taco shells, so I crunched them up instead of using tortilla chips (I saved the chips for the leftover salsa!). The shells got soft, but not soggy - I thought it was perfect. This will definitely quite often take the place of "taco night" in my house! Thanks!!!

I use sour cream instead of mayo and also a taco mix shredded cheese, Tastes great...

We really liked this! However, I couldn't bring myself to put mayo in a "nacho" casserole....so I used SC. YUMMY! I used lower fat cheese.....which I WON'T do next time because it doesn't properly melt! An 8x8 pan is the perfect size. Thanks!

My husband and I just tried this recipe. It is really good and super easy. I followed some of the suggestions and used 3/4 cup sour cream instead of mayonnaise, 1 packet of taco seasoning instead of chili powder, and a packet of shredded Mexican cheeses instead of colby cheese. It was really good and only took us about 30 minutes to make.

Yummy!  I made some last minute changes because while I was making it I found out I was having extra people for dinner!  I doubled everything, but was out of ground beef.  I thawed some pulled pork and added it.  I also added 1 cup of black beans and topped it with olives.  The casserole was almost gone in a matter of minutes!

Omitted corn &amp; added onion and spices when browning meat.  Added beans and subbed reduced fat sour cream for mayo.  Layered meat mixture, refried beans, chips, cheese.  Served w/ jalapeño slices.  Yum!  4 stars instead of 5 b/c as written, it is much less healthy than it could be.  Without sacrificing flavor, this could be fairly healthy w/ lowfat products and only layering once allows you to reduce the amounts of chips and cheese.  Thanks for a recipe the whole family enjoyed.

Not bad, not real exciting either.  The flavor is OK.  I ususally don't fault that to the recipe, as I cannot smell.  Not being able to smell, diminishes my taste ability to sweet, salty, bitter, or sour.  But DH and DD thought it didn't have much flavor either.  Thanks!

This is very good and pretty easy to make. Use a spicier salsa than you normally would. I tend to like mild salsa, but I used medium in this recipe and it was just perfect.

LOVED IT!!! I used another users recommendations. I used fat free sour cream instead of miracle whip, a taco seasoning packet instead of chili powder. Definitely will make it again!

I have been making this for months now and it is delicious.  My toddler LOVES it.  I use taco seasoning instead of the chili powder and sour crean instead of miracle whip. I also use Colby and Jack cheese and use WAY more than the recipe calls for!!!  This is one of those recipes you can change up to suit your taste.  Thanks for sharing.

My husband and I both liked this one.  Easy and quick to prepare on a weeknight.  I followed some comments and used less mayo, otherwise I followed the recipe, as I like to do at least the first time.  May try adding pinto beans next time.

Very easy and good!  Used half of the mayo and the other half used sour cream.

Great dish! Easy to prepare and hit with the kids! I also changed some things around. I used a taco seasoning pack, Mexican corn, sour cream and miracle whip.

This was really good I used sour cream instead of mayo. I also put in Ranch-style beans. I really liked it and I am a picky eater.

This was awesome!  As others suggested, cooked an onion with the ground beef and used taco seasoning instead of the chili powder.  Also, omitted the mayo.

this was easy to make so it would get a 5 for that, but my family did not like all that well, but they ate it so am giving it a 4.

What a Winner!! This was so good. The adults in the household loved it just as much as the kids. I did use ground turkey for a more healthier approach and added a pack of taco seasoning to the pan when I browned the meat. Finally, I added jalopenos, black olives, and green onions to the meat mixture. Following others suggestions, I used only 1 tbsp of mayo and added sour cream instead. I also omitted the corn since I didn't have any on hand. Finally to enhance the taste I added pico de gallo seasoning to the ground meat mixture and served the finished dish with a dollup of sour cream and guacomole. 

It was really good, my family loved it. Added a packet of taco seasoning for more flavor
