Taco Casserole
Written by Diana - April 26, 2009 4 CommentsMy dinner companions are usually my husband and my son, both who appreciate good regular food more than anything else. I can try to impress them with fancy things all I want, but it’s the ground beef casseroles that set their salivary glands into motion. I had a bag of crushed chips that weren’t good for salsa scooping, so I based my dinner on how to use those up. They didn’t come from the store that way, there was a mishap and they were smooshed good, but that doesn’t mean I throw them away. The flavor didn’t leach out – just the calories, right? You can halve this recipe, we needed leftovers for tonight so I made a good amount – probably 6 –8 servings.Here’s my recipe for Ground Beef Taco Casserole. 
Ingredients:
Cook up the ground beef along with the onions and peppers and drain off the oil and mix with the taco seasoning. Layer the bottom of a large casserole dish with the crushed chips, then put the ground beef mixture on top of that. Layer the corn, the beans and tomato on top of that, sprinkle with cheese and cook in a 375 oven until it’s hot and bubbling. Serve with salsa and sour cream. That’s it. If anything, the leftovers were better on the second night.

Diana this casseroles sound so hearty! I can make a surprse to my hubby with it. He adores ground beef. We don’t use cream on such dishes in Turkish cuisine, but this one will be a perfect start in our kitchen. Thanks. I’m stumbling it right now.

You don’t need the sour cream. It tempers the spices a little, and it’s traditional to put sour cream on top of tacos, so I put it on top of my casserole.
