The almost alien, austere beauty of Palo Duro Canyon is only matched by the intense Tex-Mex flavors of the Palo Duro Casserole! Beefy, spicy, savory, and delightfully zesty, the filling of the Palo Duro Casserole would be amazing on its own, but of course it doesn't stop there! The topping is a golden-brown, sweet, and cheesy cornbread, ready to soak up all those delectable tastes. Take a trip to a remote world of flavor that still feels so close to home!
