Salsa-Loaded Snappy Dog Taco Bake Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef or ground turkey
- 1 packet taco seasoning (or your homemade blend)
- 1 jar of Snappy Dog Salsa (mild, medium, or hot)
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup frozen corn, thawed
- 8 small flour or corn tortillas, cut into halves
- 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
- Fresh cilantro, sour cream, and diced avocado for garnish
Instructions:
Step 1: Brown the Meat
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef or turkey and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Stir in the taco seasoning and ½ cup water, cooking for another 2-3 minutes.
Step 2: Prepare the Filling
In the same skillet, add the black beans, corn, and half the jar of Snappy Dog Salsa. Mix everything together and simmer for 3-4 minutes, letting the flavors meld.
Step 3: Layer the Taco Bake
In a 9x13-inch baking dish, spread a thin layer of the remaining salsa. Lay down a layer of tortilla halves to cover the bottom. Add a layer of the meat and salsa mixture, followed by a sprinkle of shredded cheese. Repeat the layers until all the ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.
Step 4: Bake to Perfection
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
Let the taco bake cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Top with fresh cilantro, sour cream, and diced avocado for extra flavor.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve with a side of Spanish rice for a complete Tex-Mex feast.
- Pair with a crisp green salad and a drizzle of lime vinaigrette.
- Crumble tortilla chips on top for an added crunch.
