Recipe Notes
Not only is this recipe a favorite with my family for taste, my kids love it because they've been helping to make it for years! I love it because it gives an opportunity for increasing skills and responsibility as they get older.
It's a great one to make with helpers of any age! Toddlers can crush Doritos with a rolling pin when placed in a gallon size baggie, and sprinkle cheese and Doritos. Preschool and elementary students can unroll crescent rolls and spread sour cream. Now that they're older, my boys help brown the meat and mix in ingredients after I drain it.
What type of Doritos you ask? My family is divided on preference so we just use both Cool Ranch and Nacho Cheese. You can sub in any flavor you'd like, or swap out for Fritos or tortilla chips.
