Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 15 ounces black beans rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup picante sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 10-1/2 ounces reduced-fat reduced-sodium condensed cream of chicken soup undiluted
  • 10 ounces diced tomatoes and green chiles undrained
  • 4 ounces chopped green chiles
  • 9-3/4 ounces nacho-flavored tortilla chips or plain tortilla chips crushed
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • Optional: Cubed avocado and sour cream

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until beef is no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking up beef into crumbles; drain. Stir in beans, picante sauce and chili powder.
  • In a bowl, combine soup and tomatoes. In a lightly greased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish, layer half each of the chips, beef mixture, soup mixture and cheeses. Repeat layers.
  • Microwave on medium high, uncovered, until heated through and cheese is melted, about 12 minutes. If desired, top with cubed avocado and sour cream.
