For a richer flavor, use full-fat sour cream. Spice it up by adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or using hot green chiles. Feel free to substitute the cheddar cheese with Monterey Jack or a Mexican cheese blend. If you don't have an 8x8 inch baking dish, a similar-sized casserole dish will work just as well. For a crispy top, broil the casserole for the last 1-2 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
