INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 lb ground beef
1 large onion, chopped
1 tsp seasoned salt
1/2 tsp ground cumin
2 (16-oz) can refried beans
1 package taco seasoning
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 can green chilies, chopped
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup picante sauce
Tortilla chips, for serving
DIRECTIONS:
1. Brown the beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat; drain. Add the seasoned salt and cumin and stir to combine. Set aside.
2. Combine the beans, taco seasoning and Monterey Jack cheese in a medium mixing bowl.
3. Spread the bean and cheese mixture in a 9-by-13-inch pan. Cover with the beef and onions. Follow with the green chilies, cheddar cheese and picante sauce. Bake at 400 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with tortilla chips.
4. Cook's notes: I use more grated cheddar, picante sauce and chilies -- we like it spicy, so we use hot picante and hot chilies!
