This casserole is a great make-ahead meal. I made it on a Sunday and then reheated it for dinner on Monday and Tuesday. It was just as good the second and third time around.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by reducing the amount of chili powder. Overall, it was a good recipe and I would make it again.
