EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

This recipe can easily be cut in half to serve five. Use an 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish and bake as directed.

For a chicken version of this Mexican bake, use 2 cups diced cooked chicken in place of the ground beef. You can omit step 2 and just toss the chicken with the chili powder.

I have made this recipe for 30 years! I first got it from an old bisquick book it was called California buger bake.the only thing different was it didn''t call for the chii powder,but now I will try that and change the cheese to Montery Jack,or how about don''t add the chili powder,and use pepperjack cheese,more for an adult taste!This has been a great favorite.Friends coming to visit me would bring their own tomatoes so I would make it!!

I have been making this for YEARS!!! back then in the 70's it was called California Burger Bake,I had a friend that when ever he visited he wanted me to make it, when I moved to The Keys he would bring me Jersey tomatoes to make!!! with tomato season on us now we WILL be eating this soon,the fresher tomatoes the better the taste,I sometimes will double the cheese,may combo cause the kids think of it as a type of pizza.

I get bored with food, so tonight I came online to my recipe box. I decided to try this one and since it's just me I cut the recipe down to half. I'll save leftovers for tomorrow. I added some frozen corn in with the tomatoes. It' delicious.
