1 pound lean ground
beef
1 small to medium onion diced
1 small green bell pepper diced
1 package of taco seasoning
1 bag of plain tortilla chips

In medium skillet, brown ground beef.
While beef is browning, sauté diced onion and bell pepper in
a separate skillet, sauté until onion is translucent.
In a large bowl combine taco seasoning, enchilada sauce,
mushroom soup, chicken soup and water. Stir ingredients until well blended.
After meat is done add to the liquid mixture in the bowl
