Taco Potato Casserole

Once cooked, the Taco Potato Casserole will be hot and bubbling with cheesy goodness. Serve it straight from the crockpot, garnished with fresh cilantro, sour cream, or your favorite salsa for an extra burst of flavor. This dish pairs wonderfully with a simple side salad or even tortilla chips for some added crunch.

Make-Ahead & Storage

You can easily prepare this casserole ahead of time. Assemble everything in the crockpot the night before, store it in the refrigerator overnight, and then cook it the next day. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply warm the casserole in the microwave or return it to the crockpot on low until heated through.

Tips

• If you like a little more heat, you can add some diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the casserole mixture.
• For a variation, try using ground turkey or chicken in place of the ground beef for a lighter option.
• If you prefer a creamier texture, you can add an extra half-cup of sour cream or a bit of heavy cream to the mixture.
