Easy Layered Taco Bake Recipes

7 LAYER TACO CASSEROLE RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium high heat until no longer pink. Drain any fat or excess liquid. Add taco seasoning and salsa and simmer for about 5 minutes, or until it starts to thicken.
• Spread refried beans in the bottom of a 9x13 casserole dish. Top with taco meat and cheese. Then place a single layer of Tostitos Bite Sizes Round Chips over the cheese.
• Bake at 400˚F for 15-20 min, or until the cheese is melted, the chips are extra crispy and the casserole is heated through.
• Top with shredded lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream to finish it off. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

LAYERED TACO DIP WITH REFRIED BEANS

Steps:

• Spread heated and smooth refried beans onto a large serving platter or in a transparent glass pie plate. The size of the platter will be the size of your dip, so if you choose to use a large platter, just make sure you use more than one can so the dip is deep enough in thickness.
• Mix 16 oz tub of sour cream and taco seasoning together in a small bowl.
• Using a spatula, carefully spread sour cream on top of the refried beans.
• Add medium or mild salsa on top of the sour cream mixture, carefully keeping the salsa inside the sour cream ring for presentation.
• Finally, top taco dip with lettuce, cheese, black olives, fresh tomatoes, and/or diced avocado.
• Cover and Refrigerate dip until ready to serve.
• Serve with crunchy tortilla chips.

TACO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Let the sour cream come to room temperature while you prepare the meat. This will prevent it from curdling when baked as it won't be going from cold to hot right away.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Add the ground beef and diced onions to a large pan and cook and crumble over medium heat until the meat is cooked through.
• Drain excess grease.
• Add ¾ cup water and taco seasoning.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
• Spread the refried beans in an even layer within a casserole dish. (Mine was 9 x 13" but varying sizes are fine.)
• Spread the sour cream over the refried beans.
• Top with cooked ground beef mixture, then with cheese.
• If you're preparing this head of time, let it cool and cover and refrigerate until ready to bake.
