Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s dive into the fun part—making the casserole! First, I start by preheating my oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large skillet over medium heat, I brown the ground beef until it’s no longer pink. It’s such a lovely smell as it cooks, and it really gets me excited! Once browned, I drain any excess fat and add in the black beans, corn, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and the taco seasoning. Mixing it all together creates a vibrant medley of colors and smells wonderful! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
