Mexican Dorito Casserole

Anyone who knows me knows that I do not enjoy foods that taste like other foods {I'm looking at you, pickle-flavored potato chips and birthday cake-flavored ice cream!}, so when recipes call for out of the box sorts of things, I am hesitant to try them. But I made this one a couple of years ago and husband just loves it! The first time I made it, I posted a pic on Facebook and got overwhelmed with requests for the recipe. I posted it and everyone who tried it loved it too! I broke it out again last week because it is super easy to make and the only thing I had to pick up from the store was a bag of chips, because in the band life house, bags of chips don't stay around for long!



Ingredients:
2 cups shredded cooked chicken or beef {the original recipe calls for chicken but I have always used beef because we are more of beef people than chicken people}
1 cup shredded cheese
1 can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1 can Rotel tomatoes {I usually leave these out since I am not a fan of tomatoes...}
1/2 packet taco seasoning 
bag of Doritos {my favorite is Nacho Cheese so that is my go-to flavor for this recipe!}

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except Doritos.
In a greased 2 quart baking dish, put a layer of crushed Doritos, then a layer of the chicken/beef mixture. Repeat once more, ending with a layer of chicken/beef mixture. Top with more shredded cheese, cover, and bake for 30-35 minutes.

I love this one because it is unique without being too different and it is so easy to make! Try this one out next time you're in the mood for Mexican but don't want to go with tacos or nachos yet again ;)
