Nachos for dinner sounds fun. Instead of having tacos, change things up a bit! For a healthier version of this recipe, I would use lean ground beef or ground turkey, reduced fat cheddar cheese, and lite sour cream. Instead of using nacho cheese flavored tortilla chips, I would substitute plain tortilla chips. Also, I would not crush the tortilla chips, but leave them whole, just as nachos are usually served.

This sounds really good, as far as the soggy chips, I'm thinking of layering the bottom of the pan with soft corn tortillas and just adding the crunchy ones on top...And adding a layer of refried beans too. I'll let you know how that goes!

We have been doing this for years & love it. But instead of taco seasoning, we use chili seasoning -- not chili powder, but the chili season you find in a packet.

This tasted awesome! The only problem was with the leftovers, when the Doritos had gotten soggy. I scraped as much off as I could, replaced with fresh Doritos, and it was awesome again! I will definitely do the Doritos "as-needed" next time instead of covering the entire casserole at the beginning. Otherwise, delicious!
