1. Prepare the Ground Beef Mixture:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and diced onion over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onion is tender.
- Drain any excess grease from the skillet, then stir in the taco seasoning until well combined.
2. Prepare the Cheese Sauce:
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine the condensed cream of mushroom soup, condensed cream of chicken soup, sour cream, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and black beans. Mix until smooth and well blended.
3. Assemble the Casserole;
- In a 9×13-inch baking dish, layer half of the crushed Doritos on the bottom.
- Spread half of the ground beef mixture over the Doritos.
- Pour half of the cheese sauce mixture over the beef layer.
- Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on top of the cheese sauce.
- Repeat the layers with the remaining Doritos, ground beef, cheese sauce, and shredded cheese.
4. Bake and Garnish:
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
- Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Garnish the casserole with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced black olives, chopped cilantro, and sliced jalapeños, if desired.
