Doritos Hamburger Bake Dish

I have been making this dish since my son was in Legion Baseball. He “volunteered” me to bring a dish to pass and I only had these ingredients in my pantry. About an hour and a half later, this dish was on it’s way to the baseball diamond. It was a home run with the players and coaches alike. While visiting my daughter and her family recently in Athens GA, I made this for the first time for my son-in-law. He flipped over it! He hasn’t stopped taking about it since. Doritos Hamburger Bake Dish will fast become your “go to” Bake Dish:)

My Sister

My sister Mary gave me this recipe a long time ago. I have added and tweaked this recipe over time and the recipe below is the result. I made many batches of this dish, ‘tweaking’ the recipe and I never received any complaints. Over the years, my sister Mary has given me many recipes that became ‘keepers.’ She worked in an office at the courthouse for many years and was always getting a recipe from someone, that she’d then share with me. Doritos Hamburger Bake Dish will become a fast, family favorite. I promise!

 Serve With

Tomato halves, shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, cilantro and taco sauce. *Note: check often during baking time, Doritos will burn:) Another great recipe to try is Italian Beef Sandwiches.  Perfect to make for large gatherings. Italian beef sandwiches can be made and served straight from the crock-pot. You can also make the sandwiches ahead of time and then reheat the beef in a crock-pot.
