Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.

  2. In a large skillet, add ground beef and onion and cook over medium-high heat until meat is browned. Drain off excess grease.

  3. Add chilies, enchilada sauce, and cream cheese to meat and mix well. Reduce heat to medium and cook 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat.

  4. In a 9 x 13 casserole dish, place a layer of corn chips on the bottom. Spoon half of the meat mixture over the chips, spreading it evenly across the dish. Spread 1 cup of the shredded cheese evenly over the meat mixture. Repeat the layers of corn chips and meat, then top with the remaining cheese.

  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is bubbly.
