Green Chilie Casserole, This recipe was give to my mom over 25 years ago (When I was a very little girl, sometime in the early 80’s ) My mom was at her dad’s funeral, when food was still mostly homemade and not brought in by a catering company No one touched it and she thought it looked interesting because of the green chilies, so she gave it a try and was pleasantly surprised It was creamy, gooey, and a tiny bit spicy It was the best comfort food she had all day After finding the creator of the dish she went back for seconds to find that word had gotten around and it was gone
