Life is getting into a busy mode again. I entered second trimester a few weeks ago and am patiently waiting for my energy to come back. I am still so tired and because of that, dinner needs to be easy.
I am always trying and creating new casseroles for dinner. They are my FAVORITE way to enjoy dinner. They are easy to assemble and everyone loves them!
This Chicken Fajita Pasta Casserole is a fun spin involving different flavors and ingredients that aren’t normally paired together. Its bold in both in flavor and textures.
