This is a spicy vegetarian casserole that would be good if you are trying to eat healthier by limiting your dietary intake of meat or are in the mood for a vegetarian meal. For a lighter version of this recipe, I would use lite sour cream, skim milk, and reduced fat shredded cheese. This dish has a lot of flavor with the combination of peppers and cheese.
