Since I just shared my Legendary Cheesy Taco Bake recipe, why not share with you guys another oven-baked taco. This is my Taco Casserole recipe.
Because I’m on a budget and a bit busy during the past few weeks, thinking about food was pretty much out of the question for a while. So when my friend would go to the store, I’d not send a list with her. Even if I was with my friend, we’d pretty much just buy easy stuff because I’d be the one cooking because she cannot cook. It was so funny watching her struggle with my Easy Turkey Burgers at first!
Now, I want real meals again. Burgers and hotdogs are great for quick meals, but sometimes you just want more.
This week this Taco Casserole recipe showed up on my list that I think anyone can handle, including my friend. And since it’s got a Mexican theme, I’m sure you’ll be excited about it too.
