Kay's Crispy Crowns Enchilada Casserole

A few weeks ago, I was watching Facebook Reels and this woman cooked something very similar to this, so this is a copycat recipe.  No matter, it is so tasty; we love it!

1 pound of lean ground beef
1 package of Ore-Ida Crispy Crowns
2 Tablespoon olive oil
1 package of taco seasoning mix
1 small can chopped green chilis
1 small can sliced black olives
1 small can red enchilada sauce
1 cup salsa
1 cup of frozen corn
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 medium green bell pepper, diced
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
2 cups of shredded Fiesta blend cheese
Shredded lettuce
Diced tomatoes
Sliced green onion
Sour cream

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  While oven is heating, in a large skillet heat olive oil and add onions and bell pepper.  Cook for 3-4 minutes until starting to soften.  Add ground beef and cook until meat is browned.  Drain any excess grease.  Sprinkle to taco seasoning.Stir in enchilada sauce, green chilis, corn, and salsa.  Cook 5-10 minutes on medium heat until bubbly.  
Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray.  Place one layer of crispy crown on the bottom of the dish.  Pour meat mixture on top.  Sprinkle with 1 cup of cheese.  Add another layer of crispy crowns.  Bake for 20-25 minutes until potatoes are golden. Remove from oven and top with remaining cheese and bake for 10 more minutes so that cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Let casserole sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.  

We like to place a layer shredded lettuce on our plates or bowls.  Top with the casserole and then sprinkle with diced tomatoes, black olives, and green onion.  We also put a dollop of sour cream in the middle.  We have also added guacamole on the top.
