Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Stir in taco seasoning and water; simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add corn and taco sauce; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes more.

Combine cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and 1 cup Cheddar cheese in a bowl until evenly mixed. Spread mixture over spaghetti. Spread beef mixture over sour cream mixture and top with remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese and tortilla chips.
05 Step
Recipe View
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a can of diced tomatoes and green chilies (Rotel) to the beef mixture.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese. Monterey Jack, Colby Jack, or a Mexican cheese blend would all work well.
If you don't have tortilla chips on hand, crushed crackers or even a sprinkle of seasoned breadcrumbs can be used as a topping.
To make this dish even more kid-friendly, you can finely chop the vegetables or even puree them into the sauce.
This bake can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Just add about 10-15 minutes to the baking time.
