My family loves eating tacos, but I like to change it up a bit sometimes with this Taco Casserole recipe. Plus, it's a little bit "fancier" for when you have guests visiting since you can just sit one dish in the middle of the table to server rather than having a bunch of toppings and shells sitting around the table.
