Step 1: Prepare the Ground Beef

  2. Layer half of the ground beef mixture over the crushed Doritos in the slow cooker.
  3. Spread half of the sour cream mixture over the beef, followed by 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Repeat the layers, ending with a final layer of shredded cheese.
  5. Sprinkle the remaining crushed Doritos over the top of the casserole.

Step 4: Cook

  1. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 5: Serve

  1. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.
  2. Serve hot with your favorite toppings, such as diced tomatoes, jalapeños, or extra sour cream.
