Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients, except cheese and sour cream, and put in 9-by-13-inch casserole dish. Top with cheese. Bake about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. When serving, top with reduced fat sour cream, if desired. Note: Vegetables will be crunchy.

Tips From Our Test Kitchen: Add salt, to taste. Try adding 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin as you brown the ground beef. Some may prefer sauteing vegetables before adding to the mixture.
