Cheesy Mexican Casserole
The worst feeling for me used to be when I would rush home after a busy work day to cook dinner for my family. I usually was stressed, had no idea what to cook, and my fridge was almost empty. I used to stop at the grocery store every night on the way home from work which prompted more stress: long lines, a later dinner time, and less time to unwind after a hectic day. When I started meal planning, I noticed that feeling of overwhelm disappearing. It’s amazing what a cohesive meal plan can do for your budget and your productivity! One of the best ways I’ve found for simple meals in thirty minutes or less are these Campbell’s Soups for Easy Cooking.

Cheesy Mexican Casserole
Casseroles are great since they usually offer tasty leftovers that are easily reheated. They can be made in a flash with a few steps, and you might have all the ingredients already on hand. For this cheesy combination, I started with Savory Portobello Mushroom from Campbell’s Soups for Easy Cooking.
I use the soup as one of the layers in this casserole along with ground beef, sour cream, cheese, corn, hot sauce, and tortillas. It’s a simply messy dish that is one of my new favorites. While I frequently use condensed soups in a variety of ways, I have to admit that I just started using it as an ingredient in casseroles. I promise that you’re going to LOVE it.

Your whole family will love this right out of the oven. I usually top my portion with the remainder of the soup mixture and extra cheese. There is plenty for four people, and we even had leftovers. The Campbell’s soup adds excellent flavor as a casserole filler, and the corn is a nice texture.
