Casserole Favorites, Anyone?

Some of my favorite dishes are casseroles. I love the smell of them baking in the oven and the way they make me feel cozy and warm. Casseroles equate to comfort food, and there is no better time of year to prepare them than during the frosty winter months.

Everyone loves getting a new recipe to try, so I thought it would be fun to post our favorite casserole recipes here. Just click the comment button below and post your recipe so we can all enjoy it!

One of my all-time favorites is King Ranch Chicken. For those of you who like to add a little spice to life, this one's for you!

I don't think this is technically a "casserole", but I make it in a glass 13 x 9 pan, so I think that makes it part casserole dish :-)

Enchiladas

1 lb ground meat
handful chopped onions
1 packet of taco seasoning
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 small can diced black olives (4.25 oz)
12 corn tortillas
2 cans Old El Paso enchilada sauce (10 oz. each)
4 chopped green onions

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Brown the ground meat & onions. Sprinkle taco seasoning packet on top & add 3/4 cup of water. Bring to a boil & then simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat and then stir in 1 cup of shredded cheddar & the can of olives.

*Quick Side Note: My husband claims he does not like olives - yet he devours this dish. They are chopped so finely that even husbands & children who don't think they like olives will enjoy this.*

Spoon this filling onto tortillas, roll them up, & place seam side down in the baking dish. Pour the 2 cans of sauce over top. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup of cheddar. Bake uncovered 15 minutes at 375. Before serving, top with chopped green onions.

My husband also like a spoonful of sour cream on top of his serving.

I usually serve with refried beans and/or mexican rice on the side.

Oops, I just realized that the can of olives is 2 oz., not 4 oz. Sorry everybody!
