Name: Corn and Green Chili Tamale Casserole
Yield: Makes 4 Servings
Ingredients: 6 4-ounce frozen chicken or beef tamales; 1 10-ounce package frozen white or yellow corn; 1 4-ounce can diced mild green chilies; 3 green onions, chopped; 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro; 1 cup whipping cream; 1 7-ounce can salsa verde; 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder; 1 teaspoon ground cumin; 1/4 teaspoon salt; 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper; 2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese; Avocado wedges; Additional salsa verde (optional)

I’m always looking for ways to make interesting weeknight meals," says Sandy Stevens of Las Vegas, Nevada. "Since tamales are one of my teenagers' favorite foods, I came up with a new way to serve them. This casserole is a big hit with my whole family."

The spicy casserole can also be made in a microwave: Cook on high until it's hot and bubbling, about 15 minutes; rotate the dish several times, if necessary.
