    Heat oven to 375°F. Bake without cheese 20 minutes. Add cheese; bake 5 to 10 minutes longer.

  • 1  medium tomato, chopped (3/4 cup)
  • 1  cup shredded Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese (4 oz)
  • Additional tortilla chips, if desired

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 350°F. In 10-inch skillet, cook beef over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked; drain. Stir in beans, tomato sauce and taco seasoning mix. Reduce heat to medium; heat to boiling, stirring occasionally.
