What is the name of this dish?

Is this a casserole or a dip or what?

Sounds like a taco dip

Seven layer dip?

It is like a taco dip, but it had a specific name.

Do you remember what the origin of the dish is? Is it Mexican, Salvadorian, ...?

Sounds like nachos.

@La_chica_gomela I think it is more TexMex than anything else.

is it just putting the chips on a plate and covering with the rest of the ingredients? that sounds like nachos, like @Haleth said.

No, it is not nachos. You prepare the mixture in a skillet and serve it with tortilla chips.

This is sounding like a name-the-dish contest…

I’m submitting:

Jellydip
Marina’s Patented Jelly Dip
or how about
Marina’ed Nacho Dip

I know this isn’t what you asked for but this sounds good to me. I would leave out the lettuce though. You’d probably want to add ground beef.

maybe the dish doesn’t have a name, maybe it’s just somebody’s invention.

@jca- Every dish is somebody’s invention.

@AstroChuck : si senor, but i just mean somebody who did it on an amateur basis and did not name it. like when you cook your favorite, although weird, combo of foods, you may not issue a name for it (“road kill a la Astro Chuck?”)

Oh that can be found at Taco Town
Worth the wait

Seven layer dip? I agree.

Chili con Queso. Made some up during the holidays, grated cheese can be any soft cheese, chilies, tomatoes, cooked sausage or hamburg.

@Tropical_Willie I think that may be it! It did have green chiles in it.

i’m getting hungry now.

@Marina That does sound right. We like to throw some cheese, can tomatoes with green chilis, cumin, and a can of chili or some ground beef into a crock pot. Homemade chili is even better if you have leftovers.

I’m hungry now too.

@jca, that dish would be AstroChuckAsserole. Later on it becomes AstroChuckUp.

@Marina maybe I’ll make up some for the NFL playoffs this afternoon and evening.

@Tropical_Willie That is why I was asking. i wanted to look up the recipe. I did it without a recipe though. it was great.

I think that there’s only one Mexican dish with a hundred different names…slight variations on the addition of corn, flour tortillas, meat, rice, beans,cheese and salsa.

@SeventhSense Too true!

Qesadillas, burritos, chimichangas, tacos, nachos…..
I’m off to get Chinese food. :P

You’re making me hungry…...

Maybe this question has it, or what about this Maybe it was here or it could have been this one or how about tomatoes?

Thanks, @YARNLADY, but I searched all of those threads to no avail.
