Easy, Meaty Mexican Casserole image

My picky-non-vegetable-eater husband loves this easy Mexican casserole. There's very little clean-up, it costs less than $10 to make, and the leftovers reheat fabulously right in the microwave. I haven't found anyone that doesn't love it! Meat, vegetables, dairy, and grains all in one easy, tasty dish! For those that don't care for corn bread, there is another option for this recipe in the footnotes. Enjoy!

This casserole was really easy to make and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of salsa. I used a mild salsa and it wasn't spicy enough for me.

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra chili powder and cumin, and it was much better. I would also recommend using a different type of cheese, such as cheddar or Monterey Jack.
