I added sliced olives and left out the green pepper. No other changes to the recipe. It was okay, but maybe adding fresh cilantro or something else would make it a little more interesting.

Delicious! Prepared as directed, turned out good. Topped serving with sour cream.

Very tasty! I thought water amount was fine. The tortilla chips soak up a bunch I think (and get all soggy and delicious). An easy fast taco casserole with great flavor. Oh and make sure you drain the beef (which the recipe doesn't mention).

Definitely not bad! The casserole ended up a little watery so I'd cut the amount of water in half next time (or even skip it if your salsa isn't real thick). You can very the flavor a little by using different taco seasoning mixes (heat levels) and salsa (green salsa might look a little funny but I bet it would taste great!).
