  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your baking dish and set out the necessary ingredients.

  3. Stir in taco seasoning, 1 can of cream of mushroom soup, and 1 cup of sour cream into the beef mixture until well combined.

  5. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  6. Let cool for a few moments before serving. Garnish with fresh diced tomatoes or herbs if desired.
