WARM BRUSCHETTA CASSEROLE



Warm Bruschetta Casserole image

I found this in a Mexican cookbook several years ago and have tweaked it over time. It seems more Italian to me than Mexican and that's why I serve it as a side dish to meals like chicken parmesan. A few of my in-laws are vegetarians, so I am always looking for good and hearty meatless dishes. Enjoy!!
