Easy, Meaty Mexican Casserole image

My picky-non-vegetable-eater husband loves this easy Mexican casserole. There's very little clean-up, it costs less than $10 to make, and the leftovers reheat fabulously right in the microwave. I haven't found anyone that doesn't love it! Meat, vegetables, dairy, and grains all in one easy, tasty dish! For those that don't care for corn bread, there is another option for this recipe in the footnotes. Enjoy!

This casserole was easy to make and very flavorful. I used ground turkey instead of beef and it turned out great. I also added a can of corn and a can of black beans. It was a great way to use up some leftovers.

This casserole was amazing! The flavor was spot on and the casserole was very moist. I served it with a side of sour cream and guacamole and it was a hit! I will definitely be making this again.
