Taco Casserole

Everyone in our house loves any recipe with a Mexican flair! This dish is quick and easy to make...

Here's what you'll need:

1 pound of lean ground beef

1 can of refried beans

1 jar (16oz.) thick and chunky salsa

1 pkg. taco seasoning mix

1/2 green bell pepper, chopped

4 med. green onions, sliced

2 med. tomatoes, chopped

1 cup shredded cheddar or Jack cheese

optional:

1/4 cup sliced black olives

Pre-heat oven to 350*. Cook beef over medium heat, stirring occasionally until browned; drain. Stir in refried beans, taco seasoning, and salsa. Reduce heat to medium. Let heat to boiling, stirring occasionally.

 In ungreased 2- quart casserole, add beef then sprinkle with tomato, green bell pepper, onion, olives, and cheese. 

Bake uncovered 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly and cheese is melted. Serves 5.

I served this on shredded lettuce with tortilla chips on the side.
