Beef Tamale Casserole
Ingredients
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans beef tamales
  • 2 bunches green onions, chopped
  • 8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 3 cups crushed tortilla chips
  • 2 (16 ounce) cans chili without beans
  • 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature for baking, which is 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, carefully remove the tamales from their packaging and cut them into substantial pieces. Place a suitable amount of these chopped tamales at the bottom of a 2-quart casserole dish.
3
Then, layer the onions, cheese, tortilla chips, and chili in an alternating pattern until all of the ingredients have been used up. Finish this process by adding a layer of cheese and tortilla chips on top.
4
Finally, sprinkle the water over the final layer of ingredients to add moisture and flavor.
5
Bake the dish in the preheated oven, leaving it uncovered, for 40 to 45 minutes, or until it reaches the desired level of doneness.
