Such a nice quick lunch this was. Loved everything about it. Thanks for sharing. -
This recipe is a keeper -- really great-tasting and so easy to make. I did use one extra can of tamales and added a little hot sauce. Everyone in the family loved it. You have a great recipe here! -
Very hearty and filling. The flavor was so good! Next time I make it I'll add an extra can of tamales to make more servings, since it only made us 3. Fit a 11x7inch dish and only took a total of 30 minutes to bake. Thanks for posting this!

I live in Saskatoon, Sask. Canada. I'm retired, living alone and loving it. I'm a cross-stitch addict and spend hours every day stitching; I love to cook and try new recipes. I have two long shelves full of recipe books that I have to admit I rarely look at as I have a foot long recipe box with all my favorites in it.
