Ingredients

Serves 8-10.

1 package Fredericksburg Farms Texas Trail Drive Chile Mix
1½ pounds elbow macaroni, cooked al dente and drained well
1 medium onion, cut into small dice
1 cup bottled nacho-sliced jalapenos
12 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

Prepare the Texas Trail Drive Chile Mix according to package directions, and without beans. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stir the drained macaroni into the chiles and transfer to a greased 14" x 10" baking dish. Scatter the jalapenos and onion over the mixture, then top with the shredded cheese. Bake in preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until cheese is melted and casserole is bubbly. Serve hot, with warm flour or corn tortillas.
