Taco night is a common staple in most U.S. households and I’m pleased to say that delicious Mexican food is spreading in popularity across the globe.
But with all the fixings and different filling requests from family members, taco night can be a lot of work.
Recently I came across a recipe that simplifies taco night and takes these simple ingredients to a whole new level.
It’s become a family favorite in my house and I just had to share.
This is a simple taco dish with all the staple ingredients in one tasty casserole so the cooking and clean up is much more simple.
It was an instant hit with my family as they could still choose their own toppings and it used a fraction of the serving plates.
