Taco Cassrole

I found this recipe on Pinterest. It is so easy to make. It may very well be one of my favorite casseroles from now on. I adapted it from here.

1 pound ground beef
1 cup cooked white rice
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 package taco seasoning
1-15 ounce can black beans
1- 8 ounce can tomato sauce
1 cup sour cream
1 cup cottage cheese
2 cups crushed tortilla chips
8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese( or any cheese you have on hand)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Brown beef with onion, drain grease.
3. Add garlic powder, taco seasoning, black beans, and tomato sauce.
4. In another  bowl, mix the sour cream and cottage cheese.
5. Place half the crushed chips in a 9x13 cake pan that has been sprayed with Pam.
6. Layer with half the meat mixture, then cover with half the cottage cheese sour cream.
7. Layer with half the cheese.
8. Repeat Layers and bake for 30 minutes. Servers between 6-8.This is really good with salsa.
