This colorful casserole is named after the West Coast, but it always brings appreciative oohs and aahs when I serve it to fellow Texans. It's compatible with a variety of side dishes.-Hope LaShier, Amarillo, Texas.

This casserole was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chili powder next time.

This casserole was a bit too dry for my taste. I think it needed more liquid. I added some extra tomato sauce and it was much better.

This casserole was easy to make and it turned out delicious! I used ground turkey instead of beef and it was still really good. I also added some diced carrots and celery.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. I added some garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika and it was much better.

This casserole was easy to make and turned out great! I used brown rice instead of white rice and it was still delicious. I also added some diced green bell pepper and it gave the casserole a nice crunch.
