My family loved this taco casserole recipe that my Aunt Carol had made for lunch on Saturday. Everyone was raving about it and how good it was. I asked her where she found the recipe and she said “Pinterest.” LOL, go figure right? Everyone uses Pinterest to find recipes online these days, and why not? It’s a great search engine. I did a quick search on Pinterest and found this recipe for Taco Casserole from Lil Luna. It was the closest one I could find to her recipe (which used biscuit baking mix). Below, there’s several different options on how you can prepare this Taco casserole using ground beef, turkey, or chicken. A lot of people like lower point options for their recipes when following Weight Watchers. I just prefer the taste of ground beef better, compared to ground chicken or turkey. If I had to choose between chicken or turkey I would choose ground turkey.
Preheat oven to 400. Cook ground beef over medium heat in a large skillet until no longer pink. Drain any fat and add taco seasoning. Whatever package says to use. 🙂 Spray the 9X9 pan with cooking spray and add the ground beef to the pan. Beat eggs and milk in a large bowl. Stir in biscuit mix and pepper and mix until combined well. Pour over meat and bake until golden brown (about 20-25 minutes). Let cool for a few minutes and then spread on greek yogurt. Top with lettuce, cheese, and tomatoes. Serve warm and ENJOY! Cut into 4 equal servings, serving size = 1 slice
