Wondering what to make for dinner tonight? This Easy Chicken Fajita Casserole is sure to be a hit with the whole family!
Thanks to Kraft for sponsoring this post!
I love, love, love Mexican food and I really love fast and easy dinner ideas! This casserole is an easy and super tasty dinner with some delicious Mexican flavors that the whole family will love!
A few days ago I headed to Walmart to try out the Tex Mex Chicken Fajita Recipe Makers from Kraft. I have made the New England Pot Roast and was ready to experiment with a new flavor. Like, I said, I love Mexican food, so this was an easy choice.
Instead of making the fajita recipe on the box, I used the same ingredients to make a comforting, cheesy casserole! It has been so stinkin cold here, that a nice hot casserole sounded like the perfect meal.
You guys, this was so good! It only took a few minutes of prep time and 25 minuted in the oven and the result was fantastic! I love when you can make a delicious, well balanced meal out of just a handful of simple ingredients in a small amount of time. It sure makes dinnertime more pleasant! What are some of your family’s favorite comfort foods?

The Kraft recipe makers have been discontinued. Can it be made with fajita mix and salsa in place of the kraft?
Phil says
I made mine with fajita seasoning, lime juice & Olive oil. Also added a couple of layers of refried beans too! It was yummy!

I’m a little late to the party….
We’re not big fans of adding tortillas to casseroles, my husband and I don’t care for the texture once it’s cooked. There is a little market in the hospital I have to frequent for a medical issue and they make awesome Mexican rice bowls. Do you think I could add rice to this instead of the tortillas? Would 1.5-2 cups cooked rice work?

I bet the rice would taste awesome in this casserole! Let me know how you like it! 🙂
