We love tacos and most kids love them too. This Chicken Taco Casserole has all the delicious taco taste and is loaded with cheese. Definitely a favorite family recipe!

Do you ever have a super busy week, we’ve got you covered with this amazing Chicken Taco Casserole.

We have had that kind of week. Our sweet sister Kristen was in a terrible car accident with her family.

Here in Utah we had freezing rain, which immediately turns to ice when it hits the ground.

All the freeways turned into ice skating rinks and it makes driving so scary.

Kristen and her family were headed out to visit us when a semi-truck went out of his lane.

This caused them to swerve to miss hitting him. This sent them spinning into the side of the semi-truck.

Their car was totaled and they had to rip off the door to pull Kristen out. Her arm is in a sling from injuring her elbow. But other than that, the family is fine. We are so grateful that they are all okay.

Kristen was sitting where the windshield is broken in. An accident like this quickly puts everything into perspective on the importance of families. We held our kids a little tighter tonight and took our time with bedtime stories.

Slow down and take time for your family – including family dinner. It’s a great time to catch up with each other and listen to each other and how their day went.

And this Chicken Taco Casserole is the perfect dinner as you have a great family conversation (how did you like that segway into the recipe?!).

How to make Chicken Taco Casserole:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9 x 13 inch pan.

In a large bowl combine the chicken soup, sour cream, diced tomatoes, black beans, taco seasoning, and chicken. Then set aside.

Crush the chips, and spread half of them on the bottom of the pan. (You can crush them with your hands or a rolling pin.)

Spread half of the chicken mixture over the crushed tortillas. Top with 1 cup of cheese. Repeat layers.

Bake for 30 minutes until bubbly and cheese is barely starting to brown.
