Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds ground beef thawed and cooked
  • 1/2 cup taco seasoning
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 bell pepper diced
  • 2 1/4 cup Bisquick mix
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 can Original Rotel
  • 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish or two smaller 8-inch dishes.
  • After ground beef has browned, stir in the water, taco seasoning, onion, and pepper. Let simmer for a few minutes or until onion and pepper are almost tender.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the Bisquick and water. Once it becomes a soft dough, press it into the casserole dish. Set aside.
  • In another small bowl, combine the mayo, sour cream, Rotel, and 1 cup of the cheese.
  • Spread the beef mixture onto the dough, then evenly layer over it the cheese mixture. Sprinkle the remaining cup of cheese on top.
  • Cover with foil and freeze or leave uncovered and bake for 25-30 minutes or until cheese and edges are turning golden.
