Chili Cheese Bake

It has come to my attention that I have not posted a picture to go with my foods in a long time. Sorry. That doesn't necessarily mean I will be able to do so soon, but I just wanted you to know I realize my lack.

This is a yummy, frugal meatless main dish.
Chili Cheese Bake:
3 cups cooked rice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 small can chopped green chilies
1-2 tsp chili powder (depending on your fondness for spicy foods)
1/2 tsp salt
1 15oz can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 medium onion, chopped
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
In a greased 2 quart casserole dish, combine all ingredients except cheese. Top with 1 1/2 cups cheese. Bake, covered (remember to grease your foil to prevent cheese from sticking!) 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Top with remaining cheese, then baked uncovered for 10 more minutes.

Love everything about this - except I'd make sure to add Tabasco sauce! :D

This looks delish and I am chuckling that someone pointed out about no pictures. But better yet, your response. We do what we can do, don't we? :) Thanks for sharing with Tasty Tuesday.

Sounds great! Don't feel bad. I just started doing some pictures of recipes. It actually didn't occur to me to do that until I had posted some recipes without pictures and then noticed how many do post pictures!
