I mentioned yesterday in my Sunday meanderings that I was making taco casserole for Sunday dinner. Several people emailed me asking for my recipe. So here you go!
1 lb. ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 8-oz. bottle taco sauce, any flavor
3/4 cup water
1 4-oz. can diced green chiles
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix
broken tortilla chips
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Garnishes: shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, sliced black olives, diced green onion, diced avocado and sour cream
Preheat oven to 375* Spray an 11 X 17-inch baking dish with Pam.
Cook beef and onion in a large skillet until beef is browned; drain. Stir in taco sauce, water, chiles and taco seasoning mix; bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low; cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes.
Cover bottom of baking dish with a layer of tortilla chips. Cover with half the meat mixture. Sprinkle with one cup cheese. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Just before serving place unbroken tortilla chips all over the top. Serve with garnishes.
That photo up there is all pretty and gorgeous. I don't have food artists to do touchup work on my kitchen masterpieces so this is what it looks like when I make it. My husband didn't even bother to ask me why I was taking a picture of dinner last night. Can you believe that?

Mmmm, looks yummy! My husband has quit asking why I'm taking pictures of random things too.
Yummmm that sure looks good...I copied down the recipe of course! Geez, you sure gave me a lot to read but...I enjoyed every single post I had missed while I was gone:-) Love reading your posts, Barb, one can always tell they come straight from the heart. Keeping my fingers crossed for your hubby, hope he gets work soon!! I saw some other yummy sounding recipes you've posted so will copy those too. Hugs xoxox
That looks mouth-watering! I must try that too!
Yum, I just might be changing one of my dinners this week. If not, this is Sunday's dinner for sure!
Still catching up on my reading, Barb, and I'll try to post some pics from my camping trip tonight. :-)
That casserole sounds great! I'm copying and pasting it to my recipe folder to try later. I may have everything for it on hand, but if not, I'll try to get the stuff to fix it later this week. Thanks for sharing. :-)
I think your photo looks far more appetizing! My husband and my kids no longer wonder why I am taking a photo of my sandwich, my book, my garden, my chickens, etc They just know it will soon appear on my blog!
YUMAROO! I can't wait to try it. Wonder if I could add a layer of refried beans underneath the meat layer? I like to put beans on my tacos, so just thinking out loud.
Thanks!
Michelle :)
This sounds soooo yummy:) I think it is so cute that your husband didn't ask why you took the picture!
Looks yummy! I'll have to cook this sometime soon.
You know my kids absolutely LOVE mexican food and I'll bet if I fixed this and they loved it we would not have to eat out mexican night anymore. So with further ado I am making this for supper tommorrow night and see what happens. It really looks yummy and my son loves nachos.
Looks and sounds delish! I like Michelle's suggestion to add a layer of refried beans. Homemade tacos are my favorite dish to make, and I bet this is even better.
I didn't know you Colorado gals knew how to make Mexican food. No offense of course, but every time we try a Mexican food restaurant in CO it is definitely different than here in South Texas. You did great! I can see the guacamole-yummy-my favorite.
Yummm thanks!!!
Yummy! I'll have to make this soon! Thanks! You make my cooking planning so easy. :)
looks yummy!! I'll be making it soon too!
And Susie? Ever try to get mexican food in Ohio?? :) Now that I live in Arizona, I know what mexican food is ;)
Oh my goodness Barb, my taco salad never turns out that good looking! lol The presentation is lovely and I am thrilled to get the recipe, thanks. :)
Now, if I can just keep the saliva in my mouth long enough to copy the recipe!
A true blogger's husband he is! Digital cameras make us a bit dangerous..... I can attest this is wonderful - I fed our kids this for years and years and they still request it when they come home. Easy, great for entertaining, football games. xoxo
Yummy! Definately going to have to try this!
Looks delish! My husband loves anything Mexican themed!
Awesome. I am going to make this and yes you should start a food blog. I love food blogs.
Christina all that blog
I'm going grocery shopping today and just put all these ingredients on my list - I'm making it this week! Oh, and your cheesy chicken and broccoli was a BIG hit here last week! I'm so glad you post recipes - they're always easy and yummy. Keep it up!
Also, my guys have stopped asking why I get the camera out over every little thing. They know it's "just in case" I get the perfect picture for my blog. :)
YUMMY!!! That look delicious! One of our favorites is stuffed shells which I made Sat. night. Never thought to take a picture...good idea.
Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I sooo need a digital camera...I see things every day that I would love to put in my blog! :) dinner looks good, can I come over?
Ohhhh yummy Barb, I'm going to make this one, the kids and hubby would love it :)
LOL you know my hubby doesn't ask me anymore why I take pictures of our dinners, he already knows what I'm doing LOL
Hope you're having a great day :)
Looks yummy! Thanks for stopping by yesterday. I was actually in 8th grade when JFK was elected, and in 11th when he was killed. I'll be 59 in another week or so. Yikes!!
Looks fantastic.....I will have to make this next time I meal plan..I'm thinking of doing a food blog.......you ought to do this....thanks for the tip on leaving comments...

It's 9 a.m. and now I'm hungry for Mexican food (actually, Tex-Mex). Thanks. I'm also thinking of my mom's homemade enchiladas, which she prepares the day after making her homemade chili. She makes enough chili to use the leftovers in the enchiladas. Mmmmmm.
Thanks for the recipe! That looks delicious!
That sounds and looks just delicious!
Aunt Barb, I remember visiting you and D. back with Mom and Ed when I was, what, 2? And you'd made taco salad. Other than the olives, which I still can't stand, I was in love--obviously, since I remember a meal from when I was a toddler! It's on my menu plan at least once a month, and it's your recipe! This looks so good, I'm going to have to adopt this one into our plan sometime soon!!
Oooh, Barb, this sounds so yummy! I'm copying the recipe down and giving it a try. I know my family will love it! Thanks for sharing!
This is in my oven right now!
Just letting you know...we tried this tonight and it was great and easy.
Definetly a keeper...and I'm passing it on to momma......
