SPICY ENCHILADA CASSEROLE



Spicy Enchilada Casserole image

This zippy Mexican casserole is a real winner at our house. It's so flavorful and filling, we usually just accompany it with rice and black beans. If your family has spicier tastes, increase the chili powder and use a medium or hot salsa.-Julie Huffman, New Lebanon, Ohio
