BEEF AND BEAN TACO CASSEROLE
Food Network Kitchens nicknamed this the "broken enchilada" casserole because the soft layer of cooked tortilla chips on the bottom reminded us of enchiladas. But this dish is much easier to make!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the beef and sprinkle with the chili powder, cumin, oregano, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, breaking up the meat into smaller pieces, until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and garlic and cook until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes more. Add the beans, salsa and 1/2 cup water and bring to a simmer; cook until the sauce thickens and coats the meat, about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. (This beef-and-bean mixture can be made up to a day ahead of time.)
- Lay half the tortilla chips on the bottom of the oiled casserole dish. Spread half the meat mixture on top. Sprinkle half the cheese blend over the meat. Repeat with the remaining chips, meat and cheese. Bake uncovered until the cheese melts and the casserole is hot, about 20 minutes.
- Top with sour cream, lettuce, tomato, avocado and pickled jalapenos if desired. Serve with more salsa and tortilla chips on the side.

Tips:
- Choose the right ground beef. Lean ground beef is best for this recipe, as it will help to keep the casserole from becoming too greasy.
- Don't overcook the beef. Overcooked beef can be tough and dry. Cook it just until it is browned and no longer pink in the center.
- Use a variety of beans. This recipe calls for black beans, corn, and diced tomatoes, but you can use any type of beans you like. Some other good options include kidney beans, pinto beans, or white beans.
- Add some spice. This recipe is mild, but you can easily add more spice by using a spicier salsa or by adding some chili powder or cayenne pepper.
- Top it off with your favorite toppings. This casserole is delicious with sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and shredded cheese. You can also add some chopped cilantro or green onions.
Conclusion:
This beef and bean taco casserole is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. It is packed with flavor and can be easily customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, give this casserole a try.
