Hey, it's still Tuesday right?! I had an engagement tonight and I didn't get a chance to snap a photo of this meal before I left. But, between the four of us there is about one quarter of a 9x13 pan of Taco Bake left... it's really good stuff! I also made Schoolhouse Gingerbread which turned out amazing. Moist and so flavorful, although I am wishing I had been home tonight to make some applesauce, or perhaps some maple whipped cream to go along with it.
I would like your opinion - since this is all about you - would you rather have the recipe for a really easy Mexican Rice and Beans casserole (as in can be prepared and in the oven within 10 minutes flat) or a really gooey, sinfully delicious, incredible recipe for Unbaked Chocolate Oatmeal Trash cookies? Just let me know!

Here is the recipe for Taco Bake - remember this is the recipe that made Daniel realize he was truly glad he married me - we do simple, simple delicious food here.
Taco Bake
1 package of taco seasoning
3 cups bisquick
1 cup milk
1 small green pepper - diced into small pieces
2-3 tomatoes - thinly sliced
Mix together and set aside:
1 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded sharp cheese
2/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup onion finely chopped ( 1 small onion)
Cook the meat along with the taco seasoning and 1/2 cup water. Set aside when done.
Mix the bisquick with the 1 cup of milk and press into a 9x13 greased pan. Make sure to press up the sides a bit with the bisquick.
Spread the seasoned meat over the dough.
Sprinkle the green peppers over the meat,then lay the tomatoes over top of the peppers.
Spread the cheese topping over the tomatoes evenly.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes, or until edges start to brown slightly.
Okay, so I never said it was lowfat. I am sure there are ways to decrease the fat content of this meal, but I could never disrespect my Taco Bake in that way. If you can, look past the fat and see the two vegetables, the protein, and two sources of dairy. If you have done that, well then welcome to my world. It is a happy, well fed place to be.

I am going to try this recipe. My husband likes any kind of casserole with Mexican flair or anything with "pie" in the title...Shepherd's pie, pot pie, taco pie...he loves comfort food. Thanks! Oh, and I choose the oatmeal trash cookies or whatever they were called. :)
This looks awesome!
I choose rice & beans, but I can get your recipes anytime :)
It sounds wonderful and I'm adding it to y menu plan the next time around. I would like to see the rice and beans because I need a good recipe like that and my kids like rice.
Thanks for the recipe....I actually have all the ingredients so I am gonna make it tonight! I choose the cookies...you know me and sweets!
yummm, sounds so good! I love all your recipes. I have started to make the kefir/flax seed oil smoothie as I need to be healthy, am also expecting my third child soon (so exciting!). I choose the rice and been recipe! Thanks so much!
Can't wait to try another good recipe from you! You should compile all your recipes and make a book! We'll all campaign to get you on Oprah and then you'll be set for life! :)
I vote for the cookies. But the rice and beans sounds yummy too!
That sounds fantastic!!! Thanks so much! :)
I love your recipes. Have I told you that yet?
I have to say I'm for the rice and bean b/c I need more ideas for dinner.
But then again the oatmeal trash cookie sounds pretty good and I am more of a baker thank a cook. Maybe you could do both of them. That's my vote!
Ok girly, I just made this tonight and it was delicious and it was a big hit to all of us. Thank you!
And after reading the comments, I really think you should just post both the beans and cookies :) We need the full deal, dinner & desert.
We made your taco bake tonight - yum!
I'm so with you on the low fat thing. If you eat nutritious whole foods, why worry about the fat? It all evens out in the end somehow. And full fat things are so much more satisfying!
I made it, and LOVE it (dedicated a whole post to you and your recipes on my blog, LOL!)
Um, I need the maple whipped cream recipe asap, don't tease me like that ;)
and i too vote for BOTH recipes, I cannot choose, I cannot!
<3
I tried the gingerbread...it's delicious. I hope you don't mind. I put the link up for it on my site because I just HAD to share it, it was so good. I also said, I got the link via your site so..hopefully you'll get some traffic! Thanks Alot!
