I know you all love quick and easy dinners that are kid friendly. This spicy nacho cheese bake is just that. It is one of those quick and easy meals that everyone will love.
Don’t let the spicy part scare you, this is slightly spicy, but not overly spicy.
This recipe is similar to a different casserole that I make, but this one contains a few different ingredients since we like to change things up when it comes to meal time.
