- Rotel at times is a little spicy to kids, if your kids say it is spicy you can substitute your Rotel for canned tomatoes.
Frequently Asked Questions:
This Dorito casserole will store nicely in the fridge for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
I am super impressed with how well this dish freezes. When served in an airtight container it can last up to 6 months. When you are ready to serve, place in the fridge overnight and reheat in the oven. Top with additional chips to add a little more crunch!
This casserole is very filling on its own and requires no sides. On occasion, I will pair it with a side salad.
You can also use this casserole to serve over rice or a baked potato. I will do this with my leftovers quite often!
