I had this at a church dinner years ago and HAD to have the recipe! It is deceptively flavorful and so rich. A nice Mexican rice and a dab of sour cream and avocado salad are tasty additions to make a complete meal.

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