Mexican Beef and Rice Casserole image

This Mexican casserole with beef and rice is a super easy recipe for family dinner. Garnish with your favorite toppings. I like to top with shredded lettuce and chopped cilantro! More shredded cheese is always good, too.

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

nonstick cooking spray
1 pound ground beef
1 yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
1 (14 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1 bunch fresh spinach, trimmed and coarsely chopped
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend, divided
1 cup long-grain rice
1 cup red salsa

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and start to brown, then add onion, garlic, and taco seasoning. Cook until beef is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard any excess oil. Add beans, tomatoes, spinach, chicken broth, 1 cup Mexican blend cheese, rice, and salsa. Pour into the prepared casserole dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until rice is cooked, 45 to 50 minutes. Take out of the oven, sprinkle with remaining cheese, and bake until cheese is melted, about 10 minutes more.
