1 pound lean ground beef

1 clove of minced garlic

1 cup salsa

1 package low sodium taco seasoning

1 cup sour cream

1 can cream of chicken or mushroom soup

2 cups shredded cheese (Tex Mex blend is good.)

Optional toppings include lettuce, tomato, olives and sour cream.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cook ground beef with onion and garlic until no pink remains. Drain any fat.

Add taco seasoning, salsa and one third cup of water. Cook until thickened about five minutes and remove from heat.

In a large bowl, combine beef mixture, sour cream, soup and 1 cup of cheese.

Slightly crush Doritos (not completely, you do not want crumbs), Layer 1 ½ cups Doritos in the bottom of a two quart casserole dish. Top with ½ of the beef mixture. Repeat layers. Finally top with an additional 1 ½ cups Doritos and remaining cheese.
