  1. This is one of those favorites that you use so often, you never remember to review! We love this casserole. I will often make a big dish and take it for lunch throughout the week. I eat it as a dip for chips at lunch. Yum Yum Yum! I will also add seasonal vegetables sometimes.
     
  2. Lots of flavor here. I didn't have instant rice and had to use the regular raw sort. This of course, greatly increased the cooking time (I cooked it on low for an hour) and the liquid needed. The longer cooking time sure didn't hurt the taste any at all. It has a lot of depth and is very satisfying. I put this on a chunk of Recipe#170283 for a real comfort food meal. Thanks Kit!
     
  3. Very tasty. I didn't use as much cumin as it called for, but easy to adjust to personal taste according to how spicy you like things. Froze leftovers and will use them in burritos. Yum!
