Easy Taco Pie
If you’re craving something comforting and packed with flavor, this Cheesy Taco Mashed Potato Casserole is your new go-to. It’s super easy to make—ground beef seasoned with taco spices, mixed with black beans and corn, all topped with creamy, cheesy mashed potatoes. Then baked until bubbly and golden, it’s the perfect cozy dinner that feels like a warm hug. I love serving it with sour cream, hot sauce, and a sprinkle of fresh green onions or cilantro to brighten things up. Seriously, it’s a crowd-pleaser that comes together fast and hits all the right notes!
The Steakhouse Yukon Gold Mashed Potatos are an absolute necessity for this dish! You can find them here!
I absolutely love this ONECCI Rectangular Ceramic Casserole Baking Dish Set I just got! This baking dish is oven safe to 500°F, microwave safe, dishwasher safe, and the colors and pattern are absolutely beautiful!

🤔 Common Questions
No worries! You can substitute with canned diced tomatoes and add a bit of chopped green chilies or jalapeños to get that spicy kick.
