My Boo loves casseroles. So, we tend to eat more than our fair share. He's always looking for new recipes and I'm always experimenting with them to find something he hasn't tasted before. They're not all successes. Some of them have ended up as "treats" for the dogs. But this is one of his newest faves.

You can adjust the sour scream and ranch dressing to suit your tastes.
