This is one of my recipes from my cooking column I write for the local newspaper:

Not Mexican Chicken
1-1/2 pounds ground beef
1 can Ro-Tel
1 can of Cream of Onion soup
1 can of Cream of Mushroom soup
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or cheddar and Monterey jack cheese blend
13-ounce bag of nacho flavored tortilla chips (Doritos) crushed coarsely (not fine)
Preheat oven to 350. Using a large skillet brown the ground beef, you may wish to flavor the meat as you brown it with a dash of salt and pepper or even season salt. Once the meat is browned, drain off the fat. Turn off the heat to the skillet. Mix in the can of undrained Ro-Tel and the two cream soups until well blended. Crush half a bag of chips and cover the bottom of a 13x9 baking pan with crushed chips. Pour your meat mixture over it evenly, spread out until flat. Top with cheese. Place in the oven for 30 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
