THROW TOGETHER MEXICAN CASSEROLE

I believe that Mexican Casserole has the most delicious layers of cheese, ground beef, sweet corn, egg noodles, and more. This Throw Together Mexican Casserole is perfect for dinner, or any time you want. What is the best definition of this casserole? Well, between super yummy and super simple, I am teetering. Take your pick, they both explain it, just as well. I was in a rush to quickly get everything done, so I just threw in a few items I had lying around.

 

Ingredients:

1 pound ground beef

(1) (15 oz) can sweet corn, drained

1 cup mild, chunky salsa

¼ cup sliced black olives

3 ½ cups cooked egg noodles

(1) (15.25 oz) can of kidney beans, drained and rinsed

¼ cup taco sauce

1 (1.25 oz) package taco seasoning mix

½ cup tomato sauce

 

 

Directions:

Preheat oven 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

In a skillet, add and cook ground beef over medium heat until evenly brown. Drain.

In a 9×13 inch baking dish, combine beef, corn, salsa, olives, cooked noodles, beans, taco sauce, seasoning mix, and tomato sauce.

Bake for 1/2 hour until thoroughly cook in the preheated oven.

Note:
It is perfect in a 9×13 inch casserole dish. If you are taking this dish anywhere, the ones with the lid are really useful. For the one I put in the freezer, I use the plastic pans. It helps clean up on those busy nights, too. Also, it’s always great for taking this dish to potluck dinners or those recovering from surgery or with a new infant.
