Author's Notes

Makes 6-8 servings.

Switch up the meat for chicken or make this a veggie dish by omitting the beef and doubling the black beans.

Other topping ideas include limes, cilantro, sour cream, and salsa.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Heat Avocado Oil (1 Tbsp) in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the Onion (1) and stir, cooking for 1-2 minutes.
step 2
Add the Ground Beef (1 lb). Season with Salt (1 tsp) and Ground Black Pepper (1 tsp) and cook for 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until all meat is crumbled and browned through. Remove from heat.
step 3
While the beef is cooking, combine Cream of Mushroom Soup (1 can), Cream of Chicken Soup (1 can), and Green Chili Sauce (1 can). Stir well and set aside.
step 4
In a greased baking dish, layer Black Beans (1 can), ground beef, Tortilla Squares (12), and cover with sauce mixture. Repeat until you fill the dish.
step 5
Top with Shredded Cheddar Cheese (1/2 cup). Cover with aluminum foil and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
step 6
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
step 7
Transfer the baking dish, still covered, into the hot oven and bake for 1 hour. Remove the foil after 40 minutes.
step 8
Allow it to cool slightly before serving. To serve, cut into pieces and top with Tortilla Chips (to taste).
