Unfortunately, this was a flop at my house. It was pretty bland and tasteless, and I was the only one who ended up finishing my plate. To be fair, I've never made a chicken souiza bake before, though, so maybe that is what they all taste like? -
This was pretty good, but I would like it to be spicier. I added the whole can of green chiles instead of 2 tbsp, but I think I might try it with rotel in lieu of some or all of the creamed corn. But then I am a Texan and a spicy food addict. LOL! If you like the sweetness of the creamed corn and cornbread, you will probably LOVE this.<br/><br/>Edited to add: I took this to a party at work today and it was a pretty big hit. Like I said, if you like the sweetness of it, you'll love it! :-) I put picante sauce on mine. ;-) -
We have made this twice already - once to ourselves [to try it out] and the second to serve to guests. Amazing! And the hubby loves it too. This is excellent and such a keeper! Thanks so much for the recipe. -
Delicious casserole! The family enjoyed it topped with with sour cream and picante sauce. I used 2 eggs in place of the egg substitue, an etire 4.5 ounce can of green chilies and leftover bbq chicken (meat from 2 breasts and 2 legs). It was very much like a "cheaters" tamale. I'll make this one again and will take it to a potluck because you are right - it would server a crowd! Thanks Little Bee. -

I'm so glad I tried this recipe because it is absolutely delicious! Used two whole eggs in lieu of the substitute, and one fresh jalapeno pepper instead of the canned chilis. Can't wait to have some of the leftovers for lunch; it is so savory and truly a "comfort" dish!

I am happily married to my best friend and we just bought our first house! No kids but we have 2 little dogs that we think the world of. I was born in California and although I have been on the East Coast for most of my life I am still displaced! I love the beach and hate the cold! In our free time we love to go to the beach or the mountains and hike or intertube down the lazy Shenendoah River. It is so beautiful there! I have loved to cook all of my life and will read cookbooks like they are novels!
