Crock Pot Taco Rice Casserole

My favorite crock pot is the casserole crock pot.  It's blue and it is perfect for converting  your favorite casserole meals to crock pot meals! The Crock Pot Taco Rice Casserole was perfect match for the Casserole Crock Pot.

I like to make things simple when it comes to crock pot cooking! I prepared the hamburger in the Pampered Chef Micro Cooker in the microwave. You can cook the hamburger on the stove top, but it only took 5 minutes in the microwave.  Drain the fat, and add the rest of the onions, drained black beans, corn, the can of diced tomatoes with green chiles and 1/4 cup of Old El Paso Taco Seasoning Mix. I like to use Old El Paso Seasonings if you don't make your own taco seasoning. 

Spray the crock pot with Pam Cooking Spray. Place the cooked rice in the crock pot, sprinkle garlic salt over the rice. Spread the mixture over the rice.

Spread Kraft Mexican Taco Shredded Cheese on top.  Cook on high for 2-3 hours.  Add more cheese if you want, so you might want to buy 2 bags!  This was delicious, and I know my son will love to eat this in a tortilla.  Add more cheese, onions, tomatoes, avocado, lettuce to your liking!
