Easy Cheesy Mexican Casserole image

This goes together quickly and then bakes for about an hour. This recipe can be taylored to your own tastes quite simply. You can vary the flavors by using different chili powders, beans, cheese blends or Dorito flavors. It's easy to control the heat level by which Ro-tel you use. If you don't like it hot replace the jalapenos with mild green chilies.

favorite condiments or can eat alone ~ i added prepared taco meat, sour cream, scallions, endhilada sauce, shredded monterey jack cheese, black olives

Steps:

1. In a small skillet add a little oil and saute onion, pepper and garlic, until onions are translucent. Set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray In a dutch oven, over medium heat, bring 4 cups water to a boil. Stir in grits and reduce heat to med low. Continue stirring until thick, about 10 - 12 minutes.
3. To the grits, stir in the butter, 3/4 cup cheddar & 1/2 cup Monterrey Jack, taco seasoning, green chiles, onion mixture, corn. Stir until well combined and continue cooking over low heat until cheeses are melted.
4. Remove from heat and quickly whisk in the egg. Spread into prepared pan and top with remaining cheese. I sprinkle with some red pepper flakes. Totally optional.
5. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until bubbly and golden. I leave it rest for about 5 minutes before serving. It will be creamy more so than a stiff bar type grit, as that's how we like it. Can be served as bars, once cooled. Can be served with your favorite taco condiments.
