Beef Taco Bake

My family loves Mexican food. This Mexican dish is one that I’ve been making for years. I got the recipe off a can of Campbell’s tomato soup. It’s simple to make and is a big family pleaser. You can adjust the spice according to your tastes by the type of salsa you use. I also make this with the flour tortillas. They turn out to have a noodle like consistency when you bake this. It’s also made with ingredients that I usually always have in the house. So give it a try.


Beef Taco Bake

1 pound ground beef
1 can (10 3/4 ounces) Campbell’s Condensed Tomato Soup (regular or 25% Less Sodium)
1 cup salsa OR picante sauce
1/2 cup milk
6 flour tortillas (8-inch) OR 8 corn tortilla (6-inch), cut into 1-inch pieces (I use my pizza cutter to do this)
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces)

Cook the beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it’s well browned, stirring often. Pour off any fat.

Stir the soup, salsa, milk, tortillas and half the cheese in the skillet. Spoon the beef mixture into a 2-quart shallow baking dish. Cover the baking dish.

Bake at 400°F. for 30 minutes or until the beef mixture is hot and bubbly. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. (I put it back in the oven for 5 min to get the cheese nice and melty)

    I had some frozen taco meat from a previous dinner, so this was quick and easy to put together. My picky family loved it! I will be making this again – thanks for the great recipe!!

    I’m a big fan of Mexican food as well. I’ll have to try this as my family is getting pretty sick of normal tacos!
