This was a hit!
Although, due to stomach issue, I cannot use ro-tel so I replaced it with mild salsa and it was YUMMY! Love the dab of sourcream on top! I have a family of 5 with 2 extremely picky eaters and everyone went back for seconds!
This become a regular around my house!
Thanks

My mom made this recipe and since my father in law works for Frito Lay when there are out of date (like a day or two really matters anyway) I try to make this recipe (If I can keep the hubby from opening and devouring the doritos first).
Okay, that made no sense whatsoever…I always read my post before submitting and the one time I don't you get the gobbly gook that appears above. Oh well! Sorry!!!
I make this one often, my hubby loves it with buttery mashed potatoes!!!!
What is the serving size for Doritos Casserole?
Hi Heather, this dish is made in a 9X13 baking dish and can have a serving size as big or as small as you like. I usually cut it like I would a lasagna. I hope this helps!
What kind if Dorito's should I use? Nacho? Cooler Ranch? I know this probably sounds dumb…just wondering!!
I use Nacho Cheese Doritos with this recipe. Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoy the recipe!
Okay, I got this in the oven it's now baking! The raw mix looks good so I'm sure it will be good when its done. Wish me luck!
It turned out wonderful. My fiance ate 3 helpings of it! Lol!
This is the second time I have made this and its excellent!!
My husband loved it!!!
They don't sell Nacho Cheese Soup here in Canada, what could I replace it with, so that the taste doesn't change? I think this recipe sounds great!
I am also from up north and I use a package of Old El Paso Nacho cheese powder and make it as directed on pack. Hope this helps. Good Luck !
Tostitos medium queso dip works well, too.
regular chedder cheese worked for me or you can also use cream of chicken, cream of celery, cream of mushroom, anything creamy but i used to use cream of celery and cream of mushroom but the cheddar cheese soup seems to be the best and I can't find the Nacho cheese soup here so I just use the cheddar cheese soup.
Do you scrunch up the doritos first or just layer them whole?
Sheila, I scrunch up the doritos first and them put them on the casserole. Hope you enjoy it!
This is the one thing I can make in my house that makes all four kids happy and they all come back for seconds. Even the little 6 year old loves it. I, however, make it in two variations depending how they want it. I layer the pan with doritos, then the next layer is the meat, then pour the soup mixture (with dices chilis) on top of the meat, and then cheese for the last layer. If they want it really spicy I used the spicy doritos, use a spicy taco seasoning packet, and add diced jalapanos to the soup mixture and then use can also use spicy cheese for the top. I usually make one 9×13 spicy and one 9×13 not spicy and it is gone within two days and and there is only me and 4 kids eating it. Kids love it so much…I think it is because it has the doritos in it….
Aww…must wipe drool from face…definetly trying that recipe =)
to the recipe poster! what do U normally serve this with? do you serve it alone with salad, beans and rice? just trying to get some suggestions before i try it. it sounds delicious!!!!
Nia, I've served this with all of the dishes you listed. To me it really just depends what I'm in the mood for and what I have in the pantry at the time! I hope you enjoy it!
Can I replace cream of mushroom with something else? My husband is allergic to mushrooms
((
You could probably use cream of chicken and not notice a difference in taste! Let me know how it turns out if you try it!
Instead of nacho cheese soup can you use velveta cheese?
Regina, I am not sure. I have never tried it! Let me know if you do though!
Yes we use velveeta
I also make this but I add Kidney beans
This is what is in the oven right now
I used 2 cream of chicken soups & some velveeta, 1 can corn, 1 can rotel, & 1.5 lbs of cubed seasoned chicken. Oh and used nacho cheese doritos & shredded cheese w/ sliced jalepenos on top 
What is great about this dish is you can tweak it to whatever ingredients you have around! My mom puts black beans & cream of mushroom in hers. A friend adds in mexican rice & spicy doritos in hers….everyone's is different! 
I am trying this tonight…Thanks guys
Tryed this last night. Yummy it was good everyone loved it
Made tonight. A little spicy for me. Will try with cheddar cheese soup next time. My son liked it!!! And he doesn’t like to try new things easily!!
I made this last night. I used the Tostitos queso dip as recommended someone, and it was delicious!!! I was hoping for leftovers tonight, but NOT!!! Will definitely make this again. Next time I may try chicken but my family wanted hamburger.
I just made this with ground chicken instead. I used hot and spicy taco seasoning and extra onion. I also added a can on black beans. So good !! Would be good with lettuce and sour cream
