Taco Casserole

This is a a great recipe to have with salsa and chips and is good change up from ordinary tacos. I got it from Pinterest!




Ingredients:

  • about 2 cups of tortilla chips (additional for serving)
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil (or chili oil)
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 pound of ground beef or chicken
  • 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning
  • 1 can of black beans drained
  • 1 cup of salsa
  • 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:

  • Preheat oven on 350
  • Line the bottom of a casserole dish with chips that are slightly broken( bite- sized)
  • Heat oil in a large skillet and add sliced onions and saute until soft
  • Add meat and then taco seasoning, cook and break up meat 
  • Add beans and salsa to the mixture( I had to transfer the mixture into a large pot because I don't have a large enough skillet)
  • Spread the mixture onto the dish covered with chips
  • Sprinkle cheese on top and bake for about 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and gooey
Additional toppings: Sliced tomatoes, green or red pepper, olives, lettuce or whatever your heart desires!
