POTATO AND CHORIZO CASSEROLE



Potato and Chorizo Casserole image

I love the smoky flavor chorizo gives this dish, but I've also made it with Italian sausage and substituted an Italian blend cheese for the Mexican cheese. Or you can use cream of mushroom soup and fresh mushrooms for a vegetarian option. -Ana Beteta, Aberdeen, Maryland

Cheesy Chorizo Potatoes, Millie's image

We love our Mexican food ! These potatoes are great when you don't want to have rice. The chorizo gives these potatoes just the right flavor and the cheese, well, everyone knows cheese makes everything better ! lol..I use whatever cheese I have on hand at the time. It's great with Pepper Jack, cheddar or the Mexican cheese blend....
