Until Jordan went on the road with The 99, I didn’t make many casseroles. Jordan doesn’t like it when his food touches so eating a casserole was out of the question for him. This is why I was so surprised when he came home in July and he brought me a recipe for his new favorite meal, Chicken Doritos Casserole. He said his host mom in Tulsa, OK made it and he loved it so he asked her for the recipe. I am so glad that he is trying new foods and new food combinations while he is on the road ministering to the youth of America. I didn’t get to make this for him when he was home, we only had 2 dinners together and both of those were at his favorite restaurants. I have promised him that he would get it a few times while he is home on his winter break. I made it for the rest of the family and it was a hit, so now it is time to share it with you.
