EASY TACO CASSEROLE



Easy Taco Casserole image

This is one of my mother-in-law's only recipes. So easy and absolutely yummy. . .but you have to eat it all in one setting as the leftovers don't heat up well. I have subbed lean ground turkey in the past and it is a bit more bland than the beef, so if you take that route, make sure you brown with the turkey with a clove of garlic and a couple tbsp diced onion.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 can(s) seasoned diced tomatoes
1 can(s) whole kernel corn drained and rinsed
2 package(s) taco seasoning mix
1 can(s) tomatoe soup/tomatoe sauce
2 cup(s) grated cheeder cheese
1/3 package(s) totilla chips (this is a good time to use up the not so fresh ones, bottom of the bag)
2 pound(s) browned ground beef
1/2 cup(s) onions chopped (optional )
1/3 cup(s) peppers sweet or hot (optional)

Steps:

  • Brown your meat, and then add onions and peppers, taco seasoning, and required amount of water. Usually a cup per package of seasoning, and 1 package to a lb of beef.
  • Let this simmer for about 10 mins to reduce and let the meat soak up flavor.
  • Add your diced tomatoes, tomato soup/sauce, corn, and tortilla chips. Let this heat through.
  • Dump into a sprayed oil casserole dish, and top with cheese. Bake for about 20 min. on 350, or until cheese is melted, and slightly browned.
  • This can be served on top of fresh tortilla chips, with lettuce as a taco salad, or as is with maybe some chips on the side. Olives and sour creme really add to this dish as well. Mix up the toppings to make your own custom version of taco casserole. Enjoy!
