This IS SO good! I use regular white rice cooked in chicken broth and use Penzeys Bold taco seasonings. I use a cup of taco sauce and a 9x13 casserole dish. This would be perfect for pot lucks or even make ahead and pop in the oven.
Cadillac-Jack's Taco Bake Casserole
INGREDIENTS
1 lb ground beef
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup Minute Rice
1 cup water
1 can Ro-Tel™ diced tomatoes and mild green chilies
1/2 cup mild taco sauce
1 envelope taco seasoning mix (I use Taco Bell® Home Originals™)
1 12 count package taco shells, broken in half, divided
2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese* (cheddar/jack combo), divided
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375, grease 11x7 baking dish. Prepare rice. Cook ground beef and onion until brown and crumbled; drain. Stir in rice, seasoning mix, Rotel™ and taco sauce. Heat until warmed through.
Layer half of the broken taco shells on bottom of baking dish. Cover with half of the meat mixture; sprinkle with half the shredded cheese. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Cover and bake for 25 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove cover, and broil an additional 5 or so minutes to make cheese golden brown. Remove, allow to cool 5 minute before serving. Serves 6-8
*You can use the "taco blend" variety or just plain mild cheddar instead.
