King Ranch Casserole with Chili Verde
Named after the legendary South Texas ranch, this iconic Tex-Mex casserole is cowboy-inspired comfort food at its best. At potlucks and reunions, you’ll find as many versions of this dish as there are home cooks and cattle dogs. Two details set this recipe apart. First, a heap of chopped vegetables brings vibrant color, appealing texture, and balances the richness of the traditional supporting players. Second, our Chili Verde seasoning infuses every bite with bright, tangy flavor and the subtle heat of Hatch chiles.

I tried this recipe and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately, my in-laws can’t handle spicy food, so I had to make it without the poblano and jalapeño peppers. I look forward to making it again after they leave so I can spice things up a little bit.
