INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1:
Brown and crumble 1 pound ground beef. Drain excess grease.
Step 2:
Add in 1 packet taco seasoning and water as called for on the back of the seasoning packet (usually 3/4 cup) following directions on the back of the seasoning packet.
Step 3:
Once the taco meat is ready, turn off the heat and add in 1/2 cup salsa con queso. Give it a good stir until thoroughly combined.
Step 4:
Preheat oven to 350°F degrees. Spray an 8-inch round baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 5:
Layer the bottom of the pan with one of the 3 (8-inch) flour tortillas.
Step 6:
Now add about 1/3 of the ground beef taco filling on the first layer.
Step 7:
Then add 1/3 of the 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend.
Step 8:
Continue until you are done with all the layers: another tortilla, more taco mixture, more cheese.
Step 9:
Bake at 350°F degrees for about 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted and edges are slightly golden brown.
Step 10:
Allow to cool for a couple of minutes. Slice and serve. Top with desired toppings.
Notes
Serve the layered taco bake hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, diced tomatoes, or green onions. This dish is perfect for a family dinner or a casual get-together with friends.
