Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef and onion, seasoning with salt, pepper, and taco seasoning until the meat is fully cooked. Drain any excess grease.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked beef mixture with the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, diced tomatoes, corn, and shredded potatoes until well blended.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  5. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
  6. Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
  7. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  8. Allow it to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

For a lighter option, substitute ground beef with turkey or chicken. Sneak in some finely chopped vegetables for extra flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container; they last 3-4 days in the fridge.
