Ingredients You’ll Need:

• 1 ½ lbs. lean ground beef – A lean cut of beef provides the right amount of flavor without excess grease. You can also use ground turkey or chicken if you prefer a lighter option. 🍖
• 2 cups diced onion – Onions add a natural sweetness and depth of flavor to the dish. 🌰
• ½ cup diced bell pepper – Bell peppers bring crunch and a touch of sweetness to balance the savory beef. 🌶️
• 1 packet taco seasoning – The taco seasoning is key for that authentic, bold taco flavor. 🌮
• 1 ½ cups Cheddar cheese, divided – Use shredded sharp Cheddar cheese for a rich, tangy flavor that melts perfectly. 🧀
• ½ cup sour cream – Adds creaminess and a slight tang to the casserole. 🍦
• ½ cup mayonnaise – Helps create the smooth and rich texture of the creamy sauce. 🍶
• 2 tbsp Ranch seasoning – Ranch seasoning adds extra flavor and creaminess, making the casserole irresistibly delicious. 🧂
• 10 oz Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies – The diced tomatoes with chilies bring in a slight spiciness that complements the beef and other ingredients. 🍅
• 2 cups Bisquick (or your favorite biscuit mix) – The biscuit base gives the casserole structure and adds a soft, fluffy layer at the bottom. 🍞
• 1 ¼ cups water, divided – Water helps to hydrate the Bisquick to form the perfect dough. 💧
