Taco casseroles are pretty close to my number one for slop food. This casserole is probably already a thing, but I'll lay it out in case if anything I need a refresher. This is a low hanging branch of King Ranch Chicken (beef) a common Tex-Mex dish that's morphed into all kinds of recipes over the years. Taco Casserole re-named Dorita Pie because that's what was used.

In a microwave safe bowl put Velveeta (cubed) and milk in it.

In a small Pyrex put half a can of the Rotel and spread even.

Add rest of meat.
Add rest of Rotel.
Add the 2 cups of shredded cheese.
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes and check. It’s likely you will need another 15 minutes cook time.
Diced tomatoes would work to if ya don’t like spicy.

Hay yall! Don’t be afraid to adjust or substitute ingredients to your taste. These recipes didn’t come from a written measured recipe. They are made, noted, measured on the fly, then pumped up here when time permits and most importantly only if they tasted good.

If you don’t have any Texas Butter I guess we’ll overlook it if you use what’s in your pantry. Be sure to ask how something turned out or you have questions. Expect grammar errors, these are not checked much other than what my browser flags. Well, in general I can’t spell worth a crap. Thanks – Shawn
