Easy Taco Bake

When fellow Hoosier, Amy from a Latte’ with Ott, told me about her Iron Chef Challenge, I knew I would want to join in. In January, the Challenge was Duck and in February it was Lamb, both of which I just don’t cook. But this month, is Red Gold Tomatoes, so I knew for sure I could come up with a recipe with tomatoes. And especially since they are grown in Indiana…did you know that?

  1. Hi Liz !

    The Easy Taco Bake is so good! My family really enjoyed very much. My husband said,” This is great, Taco’s without all the mess” ! It was a real party on a plate for me and as promised, EASY. Delish.

    Thanks so much,

    I am going to have to try this, it looks yummy. I cook very little ground beef, but I make a vegetarian taco filling that would probably work just fine!!
