King Ranch Chicken Casserole (Oamc)

"This version reminds me of the one served at Mama's Cafe in San Antonio, TX. YUM! You can add some heat by using Hot Picante Sauce and/or Hot Rotel. Now living in Iowa, this reminds me of home. Enjoy!"

  1. Very good recipe. I used my own canned salsa (Wonderful Salsa from this site). I used low fat sour cream and due to a personal preference, I used flour tortillas. I also added 2 cups of frozen corn (thawed). Thank you for sharing your recipe. This was made for Spring PAC 2008. I will also submit a picture in the next week.
     
  2. My family loved this recipe! Thank you for it, very quick and easy.
     
  3. This was a nice recipe as it was easy to do and tasty. The tomato flavours were a little on the heavy side for us - tomato lovers will be happy! I found it was a bit on the thin side after cooking and the tortilla's were dry. Maybe, using store bought tortilla's, it would help to sprinkly water on them first?
     
  4. Tasty! It tastes like enchiladas. Very easy to make, I used canned chicken and fresh chopped tomatoes. I recommend this for a potluck or even a family meal served with salad. Thanks Kris, for the wonderful recipe!
     
  5. Delicious!!

Stay-at-home-mom of one picky 5-year-old and wife to a sweet man who will eat anything I put in front of him and swear it is the best he's ever tasted! Love to cook Tex-Mex dishes. Used to hate cooking, but now that I am staying at home and have more time to be creative with it, cooking & I are getting along much better! Am currently living in a 29-foot travel trailer while waiting for our home in Iowa to sell. Hopefully we will be in a home soon and out of the travel trailer. Cooking is NOT so much fun in my tiny kitchen! <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">
