Notes

Tips:
• You can wait to add the doritos until the last 5 minutes of baking, or cover with tin foil. This will help keep them from turning too brown.
• This is delicious served with a side salad.
Storage:
• Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days
• I do not recommend freezing this dish.
