Recipe by Chef on the coast

A recipe I found through Taste of Home. My family liked it so much they took it to school for lunches the next day! I like how versatile this casserole can be. If you want all veggies - feel free to add them! If you only want meat - you can have it that way too. This recipe is kind of like lasagna with a twist.
