Yes, definitely could be cut in half. I used a 9 x 9 dish.
Can this recipe be cut in half for a 21 x 21 cm baking dish?
My husband and I love this casserole. It is quick, easy, and yummy! It has become my go to recipe for our taco Tuesday meals. Thanks for sharing!
This was very good but if not entirely eaten you can’t reheat with sour cream and lettuce on top. Much easier to make tacos and let everyone do their own thing - adding whatever ingredients they wish. If you’re sure you’re entire the entire casserole will be eaten this is a great recipe.
This was a very good casserole. For those who have hunters in the family, I used ground deer meat instead ofhamburger. My husband loved this dish!
Have made this a couple of times and it was quite tasty. Kind of like taco pie.
I am sure this is tasty but I don't understand why one would not use corn tortillas for this recipe. There is no resemblance to a taco otherwise. Tacos are traditionally not made with seasoning. Usually they are topped with pico de gallo and optional lime wedges. If you must use seasoning make your own. I use chile powder, cumin and oregano when making my enchilada sauce. If you want more flavor add onion, chicken or beef broth instead of salsa.Our tacos are fried or broiled pulled pork (carnitas) or shredded beef (carne asada). All use corn tortilla.
I've tried both topping but the underneath side doesn't get done. Stays soggy. What am i doing wrong?
@pwilliams03 I add a layer of ground pork or beef chorizo and spicy refried beans to mine. Sometimes add a layer of wild grain rice too. Make sure you find the ground chorizo not the nasty stuff in a tube which is soggy. I like spicy foods anyway so I always add plain old Tabasco sauce to the meats when I am frying them up
I have making this for years. My kids most requested recipe even as adults. I made a few adds over the year. Add half a can of jalepeno and half a can of green chiles. Sometimes a cup of corn in the batter. Bake and spread a can of refried beans and cook another ten minutes. Add all the toppings and serve. I only use a pound of hamburger and it's awesome!
