Potato Taco Casserole

by Donna Monday

Here's a slight twist on the traditional taco casserole recipe.
The cheesy potatoes add another level of flavor to the tasty
beef and seasoned cheese. Run for the border indeed!

½ pound ground beef 1 package au gratin potatoes 2 ¼ cups
boiling water 2/3 cup milk 1 cup shredded taco-seasoned cheese 1
cup coarsely broken tortilla chips

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cook beef in 10-inch skillet over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes,
stirring occasionally, until brown; drain.

Mix uncooked potatoes, sauce mix, boiling water and milk in
ungreased 2-quart round casserole. Stir in beef and ½ cup of
cheese.

Bake uncovered 30 minutes or until top is light golden brown.
Sprinkle chips over casserole; sprinkle remaining cheese over
chips.

Bake 3 to 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Let stand
2 minutes before serving.
