What a weekend! Our sweet sister Kristen was in a terrible car accident with her family last Thursday night. Here in Utah, we have had freezing rain, which immediately turns to ice as soon as it hits the ground. All our freeways have become ice skating rinks and it makes driving so scary. Kristen and her family were headed to visit us on Thursday night and a semi-truck came out of his lane, causing them to swerve to miss hitting him, which send them spinning into the side of the semi-truck. Their car was totaled and they had to rip off the door of the car to pull Kristen out. Her arm is in a sling because she hurt her elbow, but other than that, they are okay. When you see pictures of the car, it really is a miracle that she is okay.
Yep . . . Kristen was sitting right where the windshield is bashed in . . .
Anyway, we have once again been reminded of the importance of families. You can bet your last dollar that I held my family a little tighter that night and didn’t hurry through our bedtime story . . . you just never know. One thing that has always been a focus in our family (both growing up and right now) is family dinner. It’s a priority in my life to be able to sit down with my family every night and enjoy a meal together. I love catching up on the day and being with my family. This Chicken Taco Casserole is actually something we make all the time because the whole family loves it. If you are looking for something that will make everyone at the dinner table happy, this is the recipe for you.

This casserole looks delish by the way. I love all things Mexican!
Also thank you for your wonderful recipe. My husband has developed a problem with gluten and I think I can tweak this recipe and make it gluten free and we will just love it!!!
Thanks for sharing this recipe, it looks great.

Thanks for the recipe!
I'm glad no one was seriously injured in the accident.
Pinning the recipe. We have company coming this weekend and this is going to be on the menu! Thanks.
Thanks for the yummy recipe. I am going to try it tonight:-)
I was rear-ended last winter by a teenage driver, my car was totalled and my lower right leg and ankle were badly fractured. I'm now the owner of a number of screws and plates ... not great, BUT I'm not in a wheelchair anymore - or worse. It's been a long recovery, I still can't walk a long way or do some things I used to, but I'm determined to get back as far as can!!
On a good note, I love this recipe. It looks delicious. I will be featuring it on Tasty Thursdays this week. Thanks for linking up. The party will be live tonight. Thanks, Nichi
This casserole looks phenomenal!! I'd love for you to come link up to my new weekly Simple Supper Tuesday linky party!! Thanks

And... I'm loving this casserole!!
I made this casserole this week and would definitely make this again! SO easy and really tasty! The kiddos are super picky eaters. They hated the black beans but other than that, we got a rave review!! I like black beans so those are staying.
I'm not spotting this Recipe in the Casserole section of the website. Maybe I'm just missing it? I have it Pinned so I just go to my board to find it.
