This is a recipe that I found on the WW BB. I am not sure who I should give credit too. I have made this recipe several times. It is a hit with my family. I just put it through the Recipe Builder on WW website last night. Just goes to show you again, that we should always re-figure the points no matter who gives us the recipe. The original recipe showed that this made 12 servings for 5 points. That is not what the recipe builder came up with! Yeah for us! 8 Servings
So here is the recipe. Let me know what you think!
DORITO CASSEROLE
1 lb. extra-lean ground beef
8 oz. 2% Velveeta
2 T. chili powder or taco seasoning
1 can FF cream of chicken soup
1 can Rotel tomatoes (this is spicy so you might use the mild)
½ bag baked Doritos – Nacho Cheese or Cool Ranch (1 bag has 12 oz. I figured you can use 7 oz & not change the points. We have used the cheese)
Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9”x13” baking dish with Pam.
Brown ground beef; drain.
Stir in chili powder or taco seasoning, soup, and Rotel.
Crush Doritos and sprinkle half in bottom of baking dish. Add a layer of meat mixture, half the cheese, and another layer of Doritos.
Add remaining meat. Top with cheese.
Bake 30-40 minutes or until bubbly.
Serve over rice, if desired, for additional points.
This makes a large serving. I make the filling and freeze half at a time. Then only crush 1/2 of the needed chips and bake it in a 8×8. Freeze the filling for a quick dinner in the future.
