BEEF TACO BAKE

This is a casserole that closely resembles a cheesey soft taco that is served in a bowl. It's very yummy, everyone who has had it has loved it in my home. Serve with a side salad for a complete meal. This recipe originally came from Campbell's Soup, but I didn't really like it that way so I've added a few extras here and there.
