Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat the oven

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

2
Cook the ground beef

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.

3
Prepare the vegetables

Dice the onion and red bell pepper. Mince the garlic cloves. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and diced red bell pepper to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

4
Add seasonings and tomatoes

Stir in the chili powder, cumin, and diced tomatoes with their juices. Simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

5
Add beans and corn

Drain and rinse the kidney beans. Add the kidney beans and corn kernels to the skillet. Stir to combine and remove from heat.

6
Layer the casserole

Arrange a layer of tortilla chips in the prepared baking dish. Spoon half of the chili mixture over the chips. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese over the chili. Repeat the layers with the remaining chips, chili mixture, and cheeses.

7
Bake the casserole

Bake the chili cheese casserole for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is heated through.

8
Serve

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Serve the chili cheese casserole hot, garnished with your favorite toppings, if desired. Enjoy the delicious combination of flavors and textures in this comforting dish!
