How To Make taco casserole
-
Step 1Brown the ground beef and all seasonings and vegetables. As the meat cooks the tomatoes will soften. Smash into the meat mixture and stir. This provides enough moisture and flavor without adding tomato sauce or water. The meat mixture will thicken slightly.
-
Step 2In a mixer combine cornbread mix, eggs, milk, oil and corn.
-
Step 3Spray a casserole dish with oil and pour half the cornbread mixture.
-
Step 4Pour browned meat evenly over half the cornbread mixture. Top with shredded sharp cheddar cheese. Pour remaining cornbread mixture over top.
-
Step 5Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes until golden brown.
