Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.

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

Add salsa, taco seasoning, and â…" cup of water. Cook until thickened, about 5 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 don’t want crumbs). Layer 1 ½ cups Doritos in the bottom of a 2 qt casserole dish . Top with ½ of the beef mixture. Repeat layers. Finally top with an additional 1 to 1 ½ cups Doritos and remaining cheese.
