Directions:
Cook the Ground Beef:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess fat. Add the taco seasoning mix, diced tomatoes with green chilies, black beans, and corn. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes.
Assemble the Casserole:
In a 9×13-inch baking dish, spread a layer of corn chips on the bottom. Spoon the beef mixture evenly over the chips.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Bake the Casserole:
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Add Toppings and Serve:
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Spread the sour cream over the top of the casserole, then sprinkle with sliced black olives, chopped green onions, chopped cilantro, chopped tomato, and shredded lettuce.
Serve:
Scoop portions of the Walking Taco Casserole onto plates, making sure to include all the layers.
Enjoy your Walking Taco Casserole with extra sour cream, salsa, or guacamole on the side!
