(1 rating)
A recipe given to me years ago, that I've doctored up to suit my family. Make as spicy as you prefer. Ours is very spicy as the jalapeno's I use are quite hot. This casserole is pretty simple and if you have a large enough, oven proof skillet, you can bake it in that, to save extra dirtied dishes. Delicious! Enjoy!
