Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Beef Taco Noodle Casserole.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C).

2. Step 2

   While that warms up, grab a 13x9-inch glass baking dish and give it a light spritz with PAM® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray to ensure nothing sticks.

3. Step 3

   Next, gently place uncooked extra-wide egg noodles in the dish, creating a welcoming base for your delicious meal.

4. Step 4

   Now, let’s move to the skillet! Heat it over medium-high heat and add in the ground chuck beef.

5. Step 5

   Cook it for about 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it apart as it cooks until it’s no longer pink.

6. Step 6

   Don’t forget to drain any excess fat to keep your dish nice and light.

7. Step 7

   Once your beef is ready, stir in the frozen Southwest mixed vegetables, the undrained Ro*Tel® diced tomatoes, red enchilada sauce, and a splash of water.

   Bring this vibrant mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally to blend those flavors beautifully.

   Pour the hearty beef and vegetable mixture over the noodles in your baking dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure every bite is packed with flavor.

10. Step 10

    Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and pop it in the oven for 15 minutes.

11. Step 11

    After that initial bake, carefully remove the foil, give the mixture a good stir, and sprinkle a generous amount of shredded Mexican blend cheese on top.

12. Step 12

    Cover it with foil again and let it bake for another 10 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and the cheese is melted to perfection.

13. Step 13

    When the timer goes off, take your dish out of the oven and sprinkle it with thinly sliced green onions for a fresh touch.
