Casseroles like this get a bad name. Too simple, perhaps, or not “gourmet” enough, but you can create great meals in a single dish with just a little work. There are a lot of variations that make this even better. Use poblano peppers or hatch peppers (in season) for a bit of added spiciness. Smoked paprika makes this casserole rich and exotic. Or top with Tomatillo Salsa or Cilantro Jalapeno Spread to really make it complete.
