Cooking Tips

  • Feel free to customize the filling by adding your favorite vegetables or substituting the ground beef with chicken or turkey.
  • For a spicier version, add some diced green chilies or a sprinkle of cayenne pepper to the filling.
  • If you prefer a milder flavor, use a mild enchilada sauce or reduce the amount of taco seasoning.
  • To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it up to the baking step and refrigerate. Bake when ready to serve.
  • You can also freeze the casserole before baking. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and bake as directed.

Storage and Serving

  • Serve the casserole hot, straight from the oven, for the best flavor and texture.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro, sliced jalapenos, and a dollop of sour cream for added freshness and creaminess.
  • Pair the casserole with a side of Mexican rice, refried beans, or a simple green salad for a complete meal.
  • Leftovers can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner the next day. Reheat in the oven or microwave until heated through.
  • This casserole is also great for potlucks or parties. Simply double the recipe and bake in a larger baking dish.
