This Light Taco Casserole is your favorite Mexican dish made a little healthier! It comes together in less than 30 minutes and is perfect for a weeknight dinner.
In a large skillet, heat oil and add onion and garlic - saute for about 5 minutes until soft. Add meat and taco seasoning, cooking until meat is browned. Rinse and drain grease from the meat. Add beans and salsa. Mix well and cook to thicken.
Line the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with about 25 tortilla chips. Gently press down the chips to break into bite-sized pieces. Spread the meat mixture over the chips. Top with cheese.
Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbling.
Top with favorite optional toppings, and serve with remaining tortilla chips.
