Casserole's Make Life So Much Easier

So I have decided that casseroles are my best friend. I can get everything ready the night before, I can freeze whatever is left, and my favorite reason casseroles are my best friend, they last for more than ONE meal. I have been looking all over the web and on Pinterest to find casserole dishes I know my family will eat. Sometime in March, I posted a Dorito Casserole recipe; well today I am posting something similar to that, but in my opinion (and my husband's) better! The featured recipe for this week is a taco casserole. It cost less than $20.00 for all the ingredients (my kind of meal).

If you have a recipe you want me to try OR you try any of my recipes, leave me a comment! As usual, my weekly menu plan is listed below. Have a great week of cooking and/or baking!
