Slow Cooker Taco Casserole – Quick, Easy and Delicious

February 27, 2018 by Kathryn 26 Comments

If there’s one meal that my family loves, it’s tacos. And even though tacos are hailed as being an easy meal choice…well darn, they’re just not. First, there’s preparing the beef. Then the endless task of chopping the vegetables and scooping the sauces begins. And then, finally, kids and adults alike can prepare their tacos.

But the work doesn’t end there. Because now, after supper ends, parents get to clean up the toppings that have inevitably spilled onto the floor. Broken taco shells, shredded lettuce, splatters of salsa…there has to be a better way!

Now let’s talk toppings. They can be as simple or as complex as your family desires. In our househohld, all the traditional taco toppings make an apprearance. But my personal favourites are avocado, cilantro and even more shredded cheese. There can never, ever be enough shredded cheese.

So no matter how you like your tacos, or how easy you think a taco dinner is already, you need to try this casserole. It will redefine Taco Tuesday in your house!
