GROUND BEEF CASSEROLE

Mexican ground beef casserole is easy and delicious.

Mexican ground beef casserole will quickly become a favorite recipe to make on a busy weeknight for your family.  It is so easy to make and provides a wonderful, comfort food meal.  It is just as good reheated in the oven or microwave and keeps several days refrigerated.  No matter how often I make this casserole there is seldom any left.  This recipe is very versatile in that you can add spices, cheese and peppers you like.
