Equipment

  • Measuring spoons and cups
  • Mixing bowls
  • 9x13 baking dish
  • Cooking spray oil
  • Oven
  • Whisk
  • Aluminum foil

Ingredients
  

  • 14-16 oz. Tortilla chips 1 bag
  • 2 cups Queso dip
  • 1 cup Cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 cup Mozzarella cheese grated
  • 1 can Diced tomatoes preferably containing green chilies
  • 1 tbsp. Onion powder
  • 1 tsp. Garlic powder
  • ½ tsp. Ground cumin
  • ½ tsp. Ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp. Paprika
  • 2 tsp. Chili powder
  • 1 tsp. Salt

Instructions
 

  • Set your oven to 380°F degrees and generously grease a 9x13 baking tray with cooking oil spray.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper.
  • Layer half of the tortilla chips at the bottom of the baking dish. Crush them a little, but do not over-crush.
  • Drizzle half of the queso dip over the chips, spreading it evenly.
  • Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar and half of the grated mozzarella over the queso layer. Make the cheese layer as evenly as possible.
  • Spoon half of the tomato and pepper mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
  • Repeat the layers with the remaining half of the ingredients in the same order: tortilla chips, queso, cheese, and tomato mixture.
  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes or until the cheese melts completely.
  • Remove the foil and bake for 10 minutes or until the top is slightly golden and bubbly.
  • Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Homemade queso dip — Try this Mexican beef trash recipe with homemade queso dip. It enhances the homemade feel of the casserole. Making the dip takes some time, so doing it in large batches is recommended.
