    Ingredients
     
     

    • 10 ounces of tortilla chips or Fritos
    • 1 pound ground turkey or ground beef
    • 2 cups cooked rice
    • 10 ¾ ounces cream of mushroom soup we used Campbell's Cream of Mushroom with garlic
    • 10 ¾ ounces cheddar cheese condensed soup
    • 10 ounces red enchilada sauce
    • 2 cups shredded cheese like Cheddar or Mexican blend
    • Optional- top with white queso

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Brown the ground meat until done, drain and add soup and enchilada sauce to the pan. Stir and heat over medium-high for five minutes, continuing to occasionally stir the sauce.
    • Lightly spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and pour half of the crushed chips onto the bottom of the dish. Layer with ½ of the enchilada soup mixture, followed by 1 cup of shredded cheese. Repeat another layer of each: chips, soup mixture, and cheese.

      What did you serve this with? A salad? or something else?

        A salad would go great with this. I usually do just lettuce and tomatoes and then serve it together. Yum!
