Taco Casserole

Taco casserole

It’s like lasagna, but with tacos. You could easily use ground beef (or turkey?) instead of the stew beef, I’m sure it’d cook a lot faster.

Taco Casserole

Prep Time10 minutes mins
Cook Time30 minutes mins
Baking Time15 minutes mins
Total Time55 minutes mins
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 pound stew beef (cut into one-inch chunks)
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ tablespoon smoked paprika
  • ½ tablespoon Mrs. Dash or other salt-free seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin powder
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • ½ cup yellow onion (chopped)
  • 1 15 oz. can Ro-Tel Tomatoes
  • ¼ cup low sodium chicken or beef broth
  • 8 soft yellow corn tortillas
  • 4 ounces cheddar cheese
  • 2 roma (plum) tomatoes (chopped)
  • ½ cup Greek Yogurt
  • ½ cup low sodium chunky salsa

Instructions

  • Cut the beef into 1" cubes
  • In a small bowl, combine the flour with the smoked paprika, Mrs. Dash, chili powder, cumin and oregano and salt. Put this seasoning mix into a large resealable plastic bag with the beef cubes, and shake to coat the beef cubes.
  • Lightly spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and heat the olive oil over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic for about 3 minutes, and then add the mixture with the flour and beef cubes. (If there's extra flour mixture in the bottom of the bag, set it aside)
  • Cook the beef for 8 to 10 minutes, until the meat is browned.
  • Stir in the canned Ro-Tel tomatoes with liquid, the beef or chicken broth, and any extra flour mixture. Crank up the heat to medium-high until the entire mixture comes to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 °F
  • Spread some of the beef mixture on the bottom of an 8×8-inch casserole dish.
  • Lay 4 corn tortillas on top of the beef mixture, followed by half of the remaining beef mixture and 2 ounces of cheese.
  • Layer 4 corn tortillas on top, followed by the remaining beef mixture and 2 ounces of cheese.
  • Bake in the oven for 15 minutes until heated through.
  • Top with Greek yogurt, chopped tomatoes and salsa.

Hello, world!

I’ve always liked cooking, but we used to eat crap a lot — like buttery mashed potatoes, creamy sauces and rich desserts. Then, my husband had a heart attack at age 38, and it was a terrifying wake-up call! Not wanting to leave our children fatherless, we knew we had to make a major change. Following his heart attack, we needed to cut sodium, sugar, saturated fats (you know, most of our favorite foods!)
