{Light} Taco Casserole Recipe
- Posted on
- 13 Comments
1/2 TBSP Olive Oil
1 Onion, chopped
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 lb. extra lean ground beef or ground turkey
3 TBSP Taco Seasoning
1 can Black Beans, drained
1 cup Salsa
2 cups Shredded Fat-Free or Reduced-Fat Cheese
Other toppings to taste – I used tomatoes, fat free sour cream, and shredded lettuce
In a large skillet, heat oil and add onion and garlic – saute for about 5 minutes until soft. Add meat and taco seasoning, cooking until meat is browned. Add beans and salsa. Mix well and cook to thicken.
Line the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish with tortilla chips. Gently press down the chips to break into bite-sized pieces. Spread the meat mixture over the chips. Top with cheese. You could also add jalapenos or green chilies as well.
Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbling.

this was very good! thanks
Made this for dinner tonight and it was a huge hit. Not very often do I find something that everyone likes!!
I made this last night, and WOWZA!!!! We loved it! Much much yummier than I even hoped! Thanks!!
Love! Made it tonight- used a black bean/corn salsa–b/c it was the only fresh salsa that came in mild at the store. I also added some frozen corn in. Next time I’ll just leave chips out and serve them on the side- some of mine ended up soggy after cooking. Everyone at my house loved it!
