Made this for a potluck @ work! No one had ever heard of it...I have been eating it my whole life! I also used some bell peppers to spell out the initials of the company. And I used round tortilla chips standing up around the edge.

Made this using Boneless Breasts and cubed them up in 1-inch pieces and used Mozzarella to top it instead of cheddar cheese and it was absolutely fabulous! The entire casserole was depleted and I had enough to make not only a 9x13 casserole but a 8-inch round casserole as well and gave to a friend of mine... not only was it delicious, it was easy to prepare and such a beautiful casserole...would be great for church dinners and such! Highly recommend this to busy MOMS!

This recipe is delicious in flavor but it is way too rich to eat. My whole family agreed they like it but needs to be tamed down. After baking for 1 hour the onions were still raw and the chips were still somewhat crunchy. I'm guessing because of the lack of liquid. I would make this again but will add a lot more liquid to it (maybe chicken stock or something).

Really good! I used a couple of tablespoons of taco seasoning in place of the spices, and 1 can of cream of chicken soup and 14 ounces of green chili. That is what I had on hand. YUM!

Served with a green salad, it was a great dinner, and easy!
