How to Make Beefy Potato Taco Casserole in a Slow Cooker
Aunt Lou here.
This casserole is meat and potatoes meets taco night. The combination is absolutely delicious! I shared some with our neighbors to rave reviews! If you wanted to make this super simple to throw together, do your prep work ahead of time. Peel and slice your potatoes, then put your slices in a bowl and cover with water. Brown and drain your ground beef ahead of time too, and you can throw this one together in a hurry! It is so good! You are going to love it!

I have made this several times once in the crockpot and also in the oven. it is an amazing recipe and is all that I have tried from this blog.
Keep up the good work all.
I added onions while browning the beef and added corn and Bla beans as a layer on top of the beef before adding the other layers. It all kicked it up a notch.
I want to try this recipe while out camping with my family and done have electricity for a crockpot. Any idea how long and what temp it would need to cook in a Dutch oven (with coals)?
We’ve never tried making this in a Dutch oven. If you give it a try, let us know how it goes!
Cook until potatoes are tender and I added cheese on top when done.
This is a Great recipe! My husband is a meat and potatoe guy and definitely not into anything spicy. But he really enjoyed this! Made it as is and turned out perfect!
Wonderful! I’m so glad that you and your husband enjoyed this recipe so much. We love hearing when our readers like a recipe we have posted!
Made this today! Family loved it! I added thinly sliced onions on top of the potato layer and added 1/2 a packet more taco seasoning. Iโm one of those girls that every recipe has to have garlic AND onions! Lol. The fam loved it!! Thanks for sharing!!
Great job making this recipe your own! I’m so glad your family loved it!
Tried this recipe tonight and really liked it. We did substitute Campbellโs Nacho Cheese soup instead of just cheddar soup. I think this would be really good adding some black beans in it as well. Thanks for sharing.
Ooooh! I like that idea! If you give it a try, let me know how it goes.
Made this tonight, sorry not a fan. Taco seasoning didnt seem like the right stuff to use.
I’m sorry this recipe wasn’t your cup of tea. We understand that, with almost 2,000 recipes, not every recipe is going to be liked by everyone. I hope you can find some you really love in our library of recipes.
Taste is delish but mine turned out pretty thin and soupy, not sure why.
Very good! make sure to use Russet potatoes though. I’m pretty inexperienced in the kitchen and thought potatoes in general were pretty interchangeable and sued yellow potatoes. They did not soak up any flavor or anything so for the future make sure to use russets. Great recipe!
Not my favorite recipe but thank you. Something new to try
I’m sorry this was not your favorite, but thank you for saying it nicely. We completely understand that every recipe isn’t going to be everyone’s cup of tea, but do hope you can find a recipe you love in our almost 2,000 recipes!
