Ingredients
1 lb taco seasoned ground beef (either leftover meat or beef cooked specifically for this purpose)
8 oz. Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix (1 box)
15 oz. whole kernel corn (drained)
15 oz. creamed corn (not drained)
1 c. sour cream
1/2 c. melted butter
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 c. diced green chillies (drained)

How to make Taco Corn Casserole
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees.
Step 2: Place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Pour everything into a greased 9 x 9-inch or 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Keep in mind that this casserole will slightly expand while baking, so by all means use a 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Also, the baking time will vary depending on the size of the pan used. If using a square 9 x 9-inc baking dish, bake for about 60 to 70 minutes. Or 45 to 50 minutes if using a 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Bake until lightly browned and the middle of the casserole is set.
Step 3: Remove from the oven when done and serve the casserole with fresh salsa and a dollop of sour cream. Enjoy immediately!
Note:
Depending on the pan use, the baking time will slightly change. I suggest checking the casserole a few times while baking.
