Sometimes you want to go Mexican, but it can be a lot of work to get tortillas together and roll them up into enchiladas or burritos. These recipes combine all the great tastes of Mexico -- tender chunks of cooked chicken, cooked rice, black beans, corn and salsa -- in one dish to bake together in a savory sauce and casserole dish.

These casseroles get tossed into the oven and are an easy make-ahead dish to stash in the freezer for those nights when you just don't want to cook.

Chicken tortilla casserole
My mom used to make this recipe all the time when I was a kid. She always called it Mexican Pizza, because she knew I would eat anything with the word "pizza" in the title. I didn't know it at the time, but this meal would one day become my favorite go-to weeknight dinner recipe.
