Taco Bake

You'll never believe that this quick and easy casserole uses BOXED macaroni and cheese. This is another of my most requested recipes, and everyone is SHOCKED when I tell them the recipe. It's ridiculously easy.

Key Players:
1 pkg. (14 oz.) KRAFT Deluxe Macaroni & Cheese Dinner
1 lb. ground beef
1 pkg. (1-1/4 oz.) Taco Seasoning Mix
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup Sour Cream
1-1/2 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese, divided (I like sharp cheddar, but any cheese will do)
1 cup Thick 'N Chunky Salsa (Any is fine, but spice it up with some HOT salsa if you like!)

PREHEAT oven to 400°F. Prepare Dinner as directed on package. While Macaroni is cooking, brown meat; drain. Add taco seasoning mix and water to meat; simmer 5 min.

STIR sour cream into prepared Dinner. Spoon half of the Dinner mixture into 8-inch square or 9-inch round baking dish; top with layers of the meat mixture, 1 cup of the cheese and remaining Dinner mixture. Cover.

BAKE 15 min. Top with salsa and remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake, uncovered, an additional 5 min. or until cheese is melted.
