Prep

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Brown

Warm a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, onion, bell pepper, and garlic; cook, breaking up the beef into crumbles until no pink remains and the veggies are soft, about 5 minutes. Drain off all grease. Season with the taco seasoning and a bit of salt and pepper; stir to combine.

Add water

Pour in water and cook for 2 minutes until thickened, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Remove from heat and set aside.

Layer

Lightly brush the bottom and sides of a 9x13 casserole dish with melted butter. Arrange 5 of the 6 tortillas along the edges and bottom of the dish, allowing any excess to hang over the sides and overlapping to completely cover the dish. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the tortillas. Top evenly with the Rotel, then spoon small dollops of the sour cream evenly over the Rotel.

Add tostada shells

Arrange tostada shells over the sour cream, overlapping them to make them fit.

Add nacho cheese

Spread nacho cheese sauce over tostadas.

Add beef mixture

Pour the cooked beef mixture over the cheese sauce and spread it into an even layer.

Add tortilla

Place the 1 remaining large tortilla in the center of the beef mixture. Wrap the overhanging tortillas around the top tortilla, making sure it's all enclosed.

Brush with butter

Brush casserole with the remaining butter and press down any loose ends.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and lightly toasted, about 30 minutes.

Rest

Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes and then carefully invert the casserole onto a serving board or cutting board.

Cut and serve

Using a large serrated knife, cut the casserole into squares. Top with shredded lettuce, more sour cream or guacamole, and hot sauce if desired.
