Are you thinking I love casseroles – you are right I do because they are delicious, easy to prepare and easy to double for the freezer.  Not to mention you can add a salad or some fruit and have a great meal.   Over the years I have started and been involved in several “Caring Casserole Ministries”.  <\/strong>A group of women would cook and freeze casseroles of all sorts and stock them in the church freezer.  We always had a variety from vegetarian, beef, chicken, Mexican to breakfast casseroles. Then when the call came in that someone needed a meal we would deliver a frozen casserole that they could cook on their time schedule. We even added frozen desserts and bread to go with the casseroles.  If they needed several meals we would deliver several casseroles.  It was a way for us to show we cared about them and to spread some joy.  <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Recently I posted an enchiladas with sour cream sauce casserole,<\/a> with no tomatoes in the recipe. This one however is more of a traditional Mexican recipe with refried beans, beef , taco seasonings and tomato sauce.  Make it vegetarian by doubling the beans and no meat.  <\/strong><\/p>\n

It goes together so easy and comes out great every time.  So, spread some joy<\/strong><\/em> by having some folks over for dinner or surprise another family that you know are struggling and you will be a blessing to them.  Make it a “Caring Casserole”<\/strong> and it will be “The Best you ever made”!!!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
