No, It’s Not Lasagna – It’s Something Even Better!

Make waves for an awesome weeknight lifesaver! This recipe has been there to help me through the worst, craziest and most exhausting days. Who would have thought you could make such a hearty meal with only a few minutes of prep work? It’s so easy, you can even have your kids make it for you. I’m not joking!

I always keep these ingredients at hand, in case one of my days turns into a chaos again. I’m not saying that happens a lot but – yeah, it happens a lot. We all know what it’s like, don’t we? When you drag your kids home, exhausted, grumpy but alive (I’m quite proud of that last part) and you realize you still have to make dinner. Not always fun, is it?

No matter how grumpy my 11-year old is, she is always ready to help me out in the kitchen when I tell her we’re making this delicious burrito casserole. All we need to do is brown the meat, mix all the ingredients together and throw some cheese on top before baking. Super simple!

Quick Tip: Like your food spicy? Add some hot sauce and jalapenos!

Sometimes, you want a big ‘ol plate of Mexican food, but you haven’t the energy to whip up authentic tortillas, salsa, and refried beans. Plus, if you have my luck,t he grocery store never seems to carry queso. What’s a girl (or guy) to do? Make burrito casserole!

This casserole is absolutely great, and it’s very easy to throw together. In fact, when I’m working late, my 15-year-old daughter enjoys helping me make dinner, and this is something she’s made all by herself before. See? Burrito casserole is so easy to make even a kid can do it. You’ll love the layers of spicy meat, cheese, and hot tortillas.
