For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a packet of taco seasoning to the ground beef while it cooks. Feel free to customize the casserole with your favorite toppings, such as sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, or a drizzle of hot sauce. To prevent the casserole from drying out, cover it with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
