When it comes to Matthew McConaughey, I think we can all agree that he's basically Texas royalty!

The man is a Texas legend, and apparently a big foodie as well- so much so, that McConaughey has shared the one Texas comfort food that he could "easily shovel down" an entire plate of!

In a past episode of "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" McConaughey joined Flavortown mayor Guy Fieri in Georgetown, Texas to visit the Monument Cafe where he was able to sample their famous Tex-Mex casserole complete with layers of tortillas, chicken, cheese, and a creamy sauce made from soups, vegetables, and spices. The delicacy is otherwise known as King Ranch Chicken Casserole.

The Monument Cafe is famous for it!

Okay, as a born and bred Texan I have to admit, I've never heard of this casserole, but then again there's lots of Texas favorites I hadn't heard of before like Parisa, which sounds a little strange to make but I can't deny that I'm tempted to try it out- you can find out about Parisa here.

However, King Ranch Casserole does sound amazing. Check out McConaughey's reaction to Monument's King Ranch Casserole.

Evidently, this Texas favorite now has a special place in McConaughey's heart.

McConaughey wasn't really known as a foodie before, but I'm sure he's working his way up to foodie stardom, especially after his tuna salad recipe went viral late last year!

Since McConaughey's recipe was revealed, many have tried to recreate it and all came to the same conclusion: Matthew McConaughey is a tuna salad master!
