Lentil Rice Taco Casserole

(from home4edu’s recipe box)

This is my altered version of Lentil Rice Casserole -original. That one is listed on here as well. We love this version; it makes the best Taco Salads, especially with homemade nacho cheese dip. I always bake 2 of these so that I have enough to make burritos (for the freezer if they last that long) the next day.
