I love the crispy breadcrumb topping on this casserole. It adds a nice texture and flavor.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover rice. I usually add a cup or two of cooked rice to the casserole and it's always a hit.

I added a cup of corn to this casserole and it was a great addition. It added a bit of sweetness and crunch.

I made this casserole in a slow cooker and it turned out great! I cooked it on low for 8 hours and it was perfect.

I'm not a fan of bell peppers, so I omitted them from the recipe. It was still delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly and my casserole turned out watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This casserole was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.

This dish was easy to make and turned out great! I used frozen shrimp and it still came out delicious. I served it with rice and it was a perfect meal.

I'm not a big fan of shrimp, but I loved this casserole! The sauce was so good that I could have eaten it with a spoon. I'll definitely be making this again for my next party.
