For a spicier kick, use hot green chiles or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the ground beef mixture.
Feel free to substitute other cheeses like Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or a Mexican cheese blend.
If you don't have canned green chiles, you can roast your own poblano peppers for a more authentic flavor.
This casserole is great served with sour cream, salsa, guacamole, or a side of rice and beans.
