King Ranch Casserole
It's been a while since I have posted a new recipe. We've all been sick here over the past couple of months so our Thanksgiving was a quiet and simple one. Praise God we are doing fine now!
As most people do, I tire quickly of turkey after Thanksgiving. So, I recently brought out some of my favorite cookbooks to find some nice warming family meals that do not involve turkey. I found this one in The Joy of Cooking. I have yet to be let down by one of their recipes and this is no exception. Reminiscent of chicken enchiladas, this casserole is warm, soothing and was a quick hit with my whole family.
King Ranch Casserole
(adapted from The Joy of Cooking)
12 corn tortillas, cut into quarters
4 cups cooked, cubed chicken
1 large onion, chopped
12 slices American cheese, sliced diagonally in half
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
2 c. chicken broth
1 can diced tomatoes, drained
1 can green chilies, drained
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray 9 x 13 in. dish with cooking spray. In a bowl, mix together soups, broth, tomatoes and chilies. Layer in the pan as follows: 1/2 tortillas, 1/2 chicken, 1/2 onion, 1/2 cheese, 1/2 soup mixture. Repeat layers. Bake for 50 minutes or until well browned.

Do you by chance, know of any quality online food services? I am starting to order all my food online because of various reasons. (Health being one of them) So far I have found 2 services, Fresh Dining (an LA company) and Celebrity Foods, but you have to call them so they can talk to you about your need. I would really like any suggestions that you may have, so I can widen my list of quality places online where I can order healthy food from.
Thank you and have a great night or day…depending on when you read this. LOL!!!!
We like to order fron Safeway.com (link in the right sidebar). Great selection and reasonable prices for delivery. If you want prepared food, Schwans.com is great but can be a bit pricy.
You've been tagged! Check out my blog at www.mirandakay.wordpress.com for the details. I also have another one at www.momsathome.blogspot.com.
Looks like a great recipe!
Thanks for the tag! I will post the answers tomorrow :0)
Hi Michele,

Looks yummy-- a bit of spice (the chilies). Monday's are chicken day at my house.
Nomadic Mary and Carrie, thanks so much. It really is great, can't wait to make it again!
