- Cook's Notes: According to the Dallas Morning News, "the casserole... is a classic Texas party dish, as ubiquitous as chicken-fried steak. It combines tortillas, chilies, cheese, tomatoes and onions with the convenience of canned-soup cooking. No one knows exactly where the dish originated; the real King Ranch in South Texas disavows any connection."
- NOTES : This made-over version of King Ranch Casserole skimps on fat, not on flavor. [Terri]
- We didn't eat it the day I fixed it, and I think it dry out a bit - but my husband pronounced it a keeper. Said he preferred it to the real thing. Next time, I think I will spray the casserole dish with Pam. The bottom layer stuck a little. But it was tasty! [Lou Parris]
