Countdown To Christmas!

Yes, my dear readers….there are only 11 days until Christmas!

I also know there are so many variations of a Mexican Casserole…I believe I have at least 4 or 5 recipes listed under Main Dishes on this Blog….so this recipe is just a bit different than some.

I am always ready to do a variation of any casserole because …well, because I love casseroles.

And I particularly love Mexican Casseroles.  I just can’t get enough of them. I love spicy and the below recipe is a not so spicy BUT it can become real spicy….if you know what I mean. You can add Tabasco Sauce or green chiles or just about anything to give the casserole a little kick….or not. 🙂

OK?…also, most people like Mexican food (or Tex-Mex) in this case and this casserole goes together in nothing flat.

So if you come home from work or shopping for gifts, you can pop this in the oven…wrap a few presents and then sit down to eat and relax for the rest of the evening.

And the clean-up is easy and I am all for an easy clean-up!

Below is the handy dandy printable recipe for Tex-Mex Taco Casserole.  I hope you like it!

Have a Blessed week.

Quick and easy with ingredients you most likely already have in your pantry. If you do not like spicy...omit the Tabasco and green chiles
