Diane - We had this casserole for dinner tonight. It is so good! I used some frozen sweet corn. And, I also had some salsa and taco sauce to use up, so I used 1/2 and 1/2 - it worked well. The cilantro and green onions on top are the perfect finishing touch. This recipe is a definite keeper! -- Karen Davis
