Chili Casserole [PHOTOS, RECIPE]
I have long felt that my "Chili Casserole" would be a worthy addition to a future edition of Big Joe Henry's "Big Jersey Cookbook."
This casserole is delicious...a family favorite...that is easy to make!
Brown 1/2 lb hamburger (more if you want it "meaty") Turkey burger works just as well!
Chop 2 small onions. Brown with the meat.
Stir in: 1/2 C corn
1 can chili with beans (15oz).
1/4 C sliced black olives (optional)
To the basic recipe, I have added 1 can of diced tomatoes (I like tomatoes).
Chili powder (to taste...I like more chili flavor). 1 envelope "taco seasoning" works well!
Prepare 1 box of Chicken Flavor stuffing mix, as directed on box.
Press stuffing into bottom of 2 quart casserole dish.
Spoon burger mixture over the stuffing in casserole dish.
Cover all with 1 C (or more) shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese.
Bake in 350 degree oven / 25 minutes (or til cheese is brown).
ENJOY!
