Ingredients

• ¾ cup water
• 1 pound ground beef
• 2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
• 1 envelope taco seasoning mix
• 5 taco shells
• ½ (12 ounce) bag nacho cheese-flavored corn chips (such as Doritos®), crushed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until meat is crumbly and no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease; stir in water and taco seasoning mix. Reduce heat to low and simmer the meat mixture until thickened, 4 to 6 minutes.

Step 3

Bake taco shells on a baking sheet in the preheated oven until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes and break apart into bite-size pieces.

Step 4

Transfer seasoned ground beef to a large serving bowl and mix in the nacho cheese corn chips, taco shell pieces, Mexican cheese blend, and hot pepper sauce.
