This easy taco bake has been the perfect weeknight dinner for my family. If you have Taco Tuesday, try this fun twist instead of traditional tacos. To make this taco bake simple, soft flour tortillas are layered with ground beef, seasoning, and plenty of cheese in a casserole dish before being baked in the oven.

A delicious and easy layered Taco Casserole with chips, refried beans, taco seasoned ground beef, oodles of cheese, cilantro, and Pico de Gallo.  

Easy Taco Casserole Recipe

½ lbs ground beef

onion

taco seasoning

water

broken tortilla chips

can refried beans

sour cream

hot sauce

cheddar cheese

Monterey Jack cheese

cilantro

Pico de Gallo (optional)

Sour cream (optional)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Lightly grease a 11x7 inch baking dish.  

Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. About halfway through the browning process, add the onions and cook until the beef is browned and the onions are soft. Add the taco seasoning and water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes.

Layer the tortilla chips in the bottom of a casserole dish. Warm the refried beans in the microwave for 2 minutes at 60% power.  Add the sour cream and the hot sauce to the beans.  Stir to combine. 

Smooth the refried beans over the chips using an offset spatula. Spoon on the cooked seasoned ground beef mixture. Sprinkle evenly with the cheddar and the Monterey Jack Cheese.  

Bake uncovered 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through. Top with cilantro, Pico de Gallo, and if desired sour cream.

I feel as if you can never go wrong with tacos. It is always good no matter how it is served.
