Great recipe Caryn. The sauce and corn chips create a taste similar to tamales. I made one slight alteration...I doubled the meat, which means I should have known to use a bigger pan. Oh well, live and learn. Still a great casserole that we will make again. Thanks for sharing. -
This was excellent! I made it with half the sour cream on top. We even had it re-heated the next day as an open faced sandwich on toast with salsa on top. Thanks Caryn. -
This is absolutely delicious. It is very kid friendly too at my house. We love it. Thanks so much for sharing. :) -
We all agreed the taste was yummy - just a couple of hitches: it's a homely little dish - not too pretty on the plate. But, if you're hungry and want filling fare -- who cares about aesthetics? The cooking steps were a little awkward. I kept thinking there must be some way to simplify and mix all of it in the skillet. However, I followed the directions. It is certainly a kid-friendly dish (especially if you use the "mild" chili seasoning mix.) This would be excellent after a chilly day of skiing, when you come home cold and hungry!
