Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 tablespoon olive oil
½ pound lean ground beef
½ pound Mexican chorizo, casing removed and meat crumbled
½ cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 cup frozen corn
½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 tablespoon butter
1 (2 pound) package hash brown potatoes
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
shredded lettuce
1 cup guacamole

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef, chorizo, and onion until meat is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, coriander, and black pepper. Add black beans, tomatoes, and corn; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes. Transfer mixture to a 2-quart baking dish.
  • Combine cream cheese and butter in a microwave-safe bowl; heat on high until melted, about 1 minute. Stir cream cheese mixture until smooth; spread over meat mixture. Layer hash browns over cream cheese mixture and top with Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and potatoes are lightly brown, 30 to 40 minutes. Serve with shredded lettuce and guacamole.

I've made this casserole several times and it's always a hit. The flavors are amazing and it's so easy to make. I usually add some extra cheese to the top and it always turns out perfectly.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think next time I'll add some more spices to the chorizo mixture.

This casserole was a bit too spicy for my taste but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chorizo or add some sour cream to tone down the heat.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover chorizo. It's also a great make-ahead meal. I usually make it the night before and then bake it the next day. It's always a hit with my family and friends.
