Emily's Excellent Taco Casserole image

This is a super speedy dinner I like to make when it is getting late and I haven't cooked yet. Chili, corn chips and cheese are topped with lettuce and tomato. Spice it up with your favorite salsa. Vegetarian chili can be found with the regular chili - it is often labeled as 'fat free'. This recipe can easily be doubled, and cooked in a 9x13 inch baking dish.

This is a great recipe for using up leftover taco meat. I always have some leftover after Taco Tuesday, and this is a great way to use it up.

I made this recipe in a slow cooker. It turned out great! I just browned the ground beef and onions in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker with the other ingredients. Cooked on low for 6 hours, and it was perfect.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used crumbled tofu instead of ground beef. It worked great! The casserole was still hearty and flavorful.

This is a great recipe to adapt to your own taste. I like to add a little extra chili powder and cumin for a spicier flavor.
