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

CHORIZO AND PORK CASSEROLE

Chorizo and Pork Casserole image

A lovely hearty casserole - its winter comfort food at its best. Its got a great flavour and the Chorizo and the chilli gives is enough of a zing but I always put out some cayenne for those that like it that bit hotter - I served it with mashed potatoes and vegetables but it would also be great with rice! I have put this here on Food.com as having made it as I went along I will never remember what I put in it.
