Taco Bake

What is your favorite recipe to make??  I don't really have a favorite. I have a few that we tend to go back to time and time again.  One of our favorites is a Taco Bake!  We like it better than taco's and it is filling and versatile.  Only takes about 30 minutes to make.

Taco Bake
1 can re fried beans
1 can black beans
1 can tomatoes with chilies
1 lb ground meat
1 pack taco seasoning
cheese

Taco toppings of choice
Flour or Corn Tortillas or tortilla chips

Instructions:
Cook ground meat.  Add taco seasoning according to directions on the package.  Add black beans.  Cook for a minute or 2 to heat through.  Add tomatoes with chillies.  Cook to desired consistency (you want it to have some juice but not be to juicy).  In the bottom of a 9x13 inch casserole dish (sprayed with non stick cooking spray) spread the can of black beans. Top with ground meat mixture.  Add cheese and bake on 350 until hot.  Serve with taco topping of choice and tortillas.
 This also works well as a dip with the chips.

Other serving ideas:
in eggs for a south western egg dish
on a salad for a taco salad

This dish also freezes well.  I often make one batch and put it into 2 smaller pans and freeze one for later.
