Easy Night Dinner! Taco Casserole

Taco Casserole is an easy and delicious twist on the regular tacos in a shell kind of thing. I really enjoy casseroles and their ease, when school nights are busy with homework, reading and other activities, it can be a lifesaver.

You can twist this recipe up any way you like it! We really enjoy corn and black olives, sometimes we even add some spanish rice into the mix. When you are short on time, grab what you have and throw it in!

    Looks delicious! We love taco night. It’s one of my grandson’s favorite meals.

    i love this idea! We have tacos and the kids are on such strange sports schedules.It means getting all the ingredients/components out at 4 different times from the fridge sometimes. And then we warm the shells too so it is a pain. THIS can be made ahead and each can take out a portion from ONE container. So many times someone has left a leftover out on the stovetop and was wasted. This would appeal the kids, our budget, and save time too! Bravo!

    I think my kids would really like this, minus the beans (I think it’s a texture thing). Casseroles are so easy and fun, you can put in whatever you like and just bake it!

    This looks good and I never thought about doing a taco dish vegetarian. We use ground turkey wherever possible when we use meat because ground beef has gotten so outrageously priced. When we do use meat for casseroles, I always cut the amount the recipe calls for in half.

    Looks wonderful, but could be a little salty. Easy enough to find lower sodium, bean, corn, & tomatoes. I’m gonna try this. Thanks.
