With a toddler running around the house, working from home and all of the other household duties that come with being a mom and wife- most weeknights are busy. Just like most other parents, I love a good, easy dinner recipe. Josh and Levi love all things cheese and taco. This Cheesy Taco Casserole Recipe is the perfect combination of both!
Ingredients
- 1 lb. lean ground beef
- 1 15 oz. can of Rico's Nacho Cheese
- 1 8 oz. can of diced tomatoes and chipotle peppers (you can just used diced tomatoes if you prefer a less spicy dish)
- 6 small corn tortillas
- 2 cups of shredded Mexican cheese
- 1 package of taco seasoning
Instructions
- Brown your ground beef - you can use any meat you like or if you prefer, you could also use black beans in the place of meat. I also prefer to cook my meat in the slow cooker.
- Add taco seasoning to meat or beans.
- Place 3 corn tortillas, torn into small pieces, in the bottom of a greased 8" round pan
- Add 1/2 ground beef mixture over tortillas
- Add 1/2 can of diced tomatoes and peppers over beef
- Add 1/2 can of Rico's Nacho cheese over beef/tomato mixture
- Spread cheese out as much as possible over dish
- Add 3 remaining corn tortilla, torn into small pieces, over mixture
- Repeat beef/tomato/cheese layering
- Bake for 15-20 minutes in 350 degree oven
- Remove from oven, add shredded cheese to top of dish
- Bake until cheese is melted
- Enjoy!
Thanks to Ricos Cheese Sauce products, I can now make this Cheesy Taco Casserole, one of my family’s favorite recipes even more delicious! With a variety of flavors, available at Walmart, you can even spice up the recipe by using their Queso Blanco or Hot & Spicy Cheddar cheese. I topped my slice with a bit of sour cream, but you could also add lettuce, salsa or other delicious taco pairings to make the recipe your own. As if you needed another reason to head to Walmart and purchase Ricos products, they are also giving away a NEW 2018 Ford F-150! You can visit here for more information!
