When I got the chance to get a copy of The Gooseberry Patch cookbook Best-Ever Casseroles I was excited! We honestly don’t do a lot of casseroles in this house but the idea of making suppers one dish and a little quicker during the busy seasons intrigued me.
But this Tortilla Chip Taco Bake, as I’m calling it, caught my immediate attention. Anything, and I mean anything mexican ranks top in my hubs’ book!
Meet Chris, if you haven’t! He tolerates me and I’m pretty sure he loves me!
He loves farming and works hard. He never wanted to do anything else, he lets me farm too!
He also smiles whenever I say I want a selfie with him! We work together every day and we are still happily married-that’s no small feat! If a marriage can survive working cattle and hogs together it can pretty much survive anything!
While I feel truly blessed I think this meme accurately describes how lucky Chris is as well!!
Tortilla Chip Taco Bake
This Mexican casserole will definitely be a go-to when we get in the field! Plus it can be made up ahead of time and just popped in the oven.
It was easy to assemble and really flexible when it comes to ingredients! Don’t like black beans, don’t add them, out of salsa use a can of Rotel instead, want a little more spice-cook some jalapeños into the casserole, and garnish with whatever your heart desires!
I love this with fresh guacamole!
