Submitted by Tiffany Gallehugh

11/2lbs of ground beef,drained plus 1 packet of taco seasoning mix
1 tub 12 oz Pico de Gallo or make your own divided
1c salsa,variety of choice(the pineapple ormango with ground turkey is GOOD!)
1 can of black beans,drained
1 bag 10 or 11oz of tortilla chips
8oz 2cups shredded cheddar,colby or mexican blend
1cup sour cream or plain yogurt(i do yogurt the greek kind healthier)

Heat oven 375.Spray 9x13 baking dish with non stick spray or wipe it down with oil

Brown beef in a large skillet over med-hi heat;stir in taco mix during last 2-3 min.Add half of pico de gallo to beef mixture;stir in salsa and beans.Simmer till hot.

Crumble chips over bottom of baking dish.Layer beef mixture evenly over chips.Top with cheese.

Bake uncovered,15 min or until bubbly.

Let stand for 5 min.Than spoon sour cream or yogurt over and sprinkle the rest of the pico de gallo..Not everybody likes sour cream so I let them do there own sour cream and pico themselves...Be creative I use different meats,different salsas and picos to make it fun and tasty...I love mango pico with ground turkey and pineapple salsa..Really good.Hope you enjoy!
