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.
