What's for Dinner? My Favorite Mexican Dish!
Tuesday, April 3, 2012 at 5:45PM
I LOVE Mexican food. My favorite dish is Chicken Chilaquiles, which I order every.single.time we go out to eat Mexican. We have been eating out a lot less recently - trying to save every single penny we can. So, I had to find a recipe to satisfy my craving.
Before I share the recipe with you, I have to tell you (as I've told you before!) how much I love Plan to Eat! This is the way I save recipes, make shopping lists, and organize my family's eating. You can sign up for a free trial for one month. I think you'll be impressed!
Chicken Chilaquiles Casserole
Layer your chips (I love Mission Tortilla Strips) in the bottom of your casserole dish:
Pour some of your salsa verde (I added cilantro, too) over the chips.
Add roasted, shredded chicken on top of that.
Then, top it off with frozen corn.
And shredded cheese (of course!).
Repeat all of these layers again, and then bake.
I also made some quesadillas, because this dish had a little kick to it. My kids aren't huge fans of spicy foods.
See, I'm not a gourmet cook - but I keep us all fed and happy. I get points for that, right? I'm also happy that I've found a system that works for me and takes some of the drudgery out of grocery shopping.
