Posted to the lists by Terri Law on 12/31/96.] Cook”s Notes: According to the Dallas Morning News, the casserole… is a classic Texas party dish, as ubiquitous as chicken-fried steak. It combines tortillas, chilies, cheese, tomatoes and onions with the convenience of canned-soup cooking. No one knows exactly where the dish originated; the real King Ranch in South Texas disavows any connection.
