Fantastic Taco Casserole

Ingredients
1 lb lean ground beef or ground turkey
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packages taco seasoning
1 (15 ounce) cans refried beans
1 cup shredded regular or low fat monterey jack or mexican mix cheese, divided (I would not use fat free with this recipe, it doesn’t melt very well)
1 cup salsa, any type
2 green onions, chopped
1 tomato, chopped
2 cups corn chips ( coarsely crushed or chopped)
Directions
Brown ground beef and drain.
Add taco seasoning and cook according to package directions, adding proper amount of water.
Put corn chips on bottom of 8×8″ dish.
Cook refried beans on stove until hot.
Add 1/2 cup cheese and 1 cup salsa. Stir until combined.
Pour beans over corn chips in dish.
Add beef to top of beans.
Sprinkle remaining cheese over top.
Sprinkle green onions over cheese.
Bake in a 375 degree oven until the cheese is nicely melted.
Take out of oven and sprinkle chopped tomatoes on top. Wait 1-2 minutes and then serve.
