The heat is on with this spicy casserole. To turn it down, skip the smoky chipotle peppers and use another small can of mild diced green chilies instead. This casserole is loaded with Mexican goodness and is delicious cut into wedges and served with a side salad for lunch or enjoyed with a side of fruit for breakfast. For a breakfast-on-the-go, heat up a portion and roll it up in a tortilla for portable perfection.
