What you'll need:
Corn chips, crumbled (or flour tortilla chips, crumbled)
1 lb ground turkey (or any other ground meat)
2 c salsa
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can chili beans (or black beans)
1 clove garlic (chopped)
1/2 c cilantro, chopped
2 Tablespoons chopped green onion
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
Juice of one lime
Sante Fe style cooking cream
Cheese...I used the "mexican" blend along with some fresh mozzarella
To start, brown the meat and drain. Then add the salsa, tomatoes, garlic and beans.
Cook this down, on low to medium low heat, until most of the liquid has cooked out. That'll take about 20 minutes. While that's cooking down, chop your cilantro and onions. Now, time to assemble! Start by putting the crushed chips in the bottom of a casserole dish.
Then add the meat mixture.
Sprinkle cilantro, green onion and red onion over meat.
Next, add the juice of one lime, cooking cream and cheese.
Bake at 350 until the cheese is bubbly, about 30 minutes.
We had company over last night; the two guys polished this off! We decided next time to try adding a can of black olives and maybe some more garlic.
Canned tomatoes are the theme ingredient for March's Iron Chef Challenge from Ott,A. Big thanks to Red Gold for sponsoring this month!
