This is a dish that brings back good memories for me of my elementary school cafeteria. We were a small school, so the meals were basically "homecooked" right there in the school. We were usually served dishes very similar to this recipe - a hearty mix of meat, vegetables, and rice, potatoes, or pasta, all mixed together somehow in a fabulous casserole. The chili spice in this dish really wakes it up and it has quickly become my own family's favorite cafeteria dish!
