MEXICAN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Be sure to cook your rice if you haven't already (if you are just reading this and just now realized you don't have any cooked rice and don't want to wait, consider switching to quinoa, which cooks much more quickly than brown rice. Instant brown rice also works in a pinch).
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a large casserole dish (9x13 inch or similar) with nonstick spray and set aside.
• In a Dutch oven or large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium high. Add the onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper. Sauté until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the beef, chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Continue to sauté until the beef is cooked through and no longer pink, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook just until fragrant, about 1 additional minute.
• Remove from the heat. Stir in the rice and Greek yogurt until evenly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
• Assemble the casserole: Spread the beans into an even layer in the prepared baking dish.
• Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese over the beans.
• Scatter the tomatoes with green chilis over the top.
• Spoon the rice and ground beef mixture on top of the tomatoes, spreading it into an even layer.
• Top with remaining 1/2 cup cheddar and 1/2 cupmozzarella.
• Bake the casserole, uncovered, until the cheese is melted and the casserole is hot, about 15 minutes.
• Turn the oven to broil, then continue cooking until the cheese is lightly browned, about 3 to 4 additional minutes, watching carefully so that the cheese does not burn.
• Let rest 5 minutes, sprinkle with chopped cilantro and green onions, and serve.

TACO RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F degrees.
• In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook it until it's no longer pink. Add the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the beef evenly in the spices.
• Add the enchilada sauce, canned tomatoes, rice and beans. Stir and bring the mixture to a simmer. Carefully transfer the beef and rice to a 9×13" baking dish. Cover it with foil and bake the casserole for 30 minutes.
• Remove the foil, stir the mixture, and bake the casserole uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes or until the rice is tender.
• While the casserole finishes baking, make the cheese sauce. Combine the cheese, cream, and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Warm it over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the cheese is melted and you have a creamy sauce.
• Drizzle the cheese sauce over the top of the casserole and sprinkle a 1/2 cup of shredded cheese over the top. Bake the casserole for five minute or so longer or until the cheese is melted. Let the casserole stand for five minutes before adding the rest of the toppings.
• Spread the chopped lettuce down the center of the casserole. Sprinkle the chopped tomatoes and cilantro over the top.

BEEF AND BEAN TACO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the beef and sprinkle with the chili powder, cumin, oregano, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, breaking up the meat into smaller pieces, until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and garlic and cook until the onions are soft, about 5 minutes more. Add the beans, salsa and 1/2 cup water and bring to a simmer; cook until the sauce thickens and coats the meat, about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. (This beef-and-bean mixture can be made up to a day ahead of time.)
• Lay half the tortilla chips on the bottom of the oiled casserole dish. Spread half the meat mixture on top. Sprinkle half the cheese blend over the meat. Repeat with the remaining chips, meat and cheese. Bake uncovered until the cheese melts and the casserole is hot, about 20 minutes.
• Top with sour cream, lettuce, tomato, avocado and pickled jalapenos if desired. Serve with more salsa and tortilla chips on the side.

• Meanwhile fry your tortillas in oil until soft. Fold and lightly sprinkle with salt.
• Place about 1/4 cup of bean mixture and top with your choice of toppings: shredded cabbage, cheese, avocado, cilantro, sour cream, etc.
