I got creative while we were housebound during a snowstorm one winter...and used ingredients I had on hand to come up with this hearty casserole. Later, I modified it so it has less fat and fewer calories. —Judy Munger, Warren, Minnesota

Health Tip: Even reduced-sodium taco seasoning adds over 300mg sodium per serving. Make your own with 4 tsp. dried minced onion, 3 tsp. chili powder, 1 tsp. cornstarch, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. cumin, ½ tsp. dried oregano and 1/8 tsp. cayenne.
