Your site looks so very interesting. A friend in Texas recommended you "guys" -- I'm in Utah!

My mom has something similar to this that we always called Mexican stack-up. Instead of chicken we used homemade beef chili that was made in the slow cooker. We also added crushed tortilla chips, tomatoes, jalapenos and avacado. Good stuff and simple to put together.

I made this tonight and it was wonderful. Thank you for the recipe. I even had a couple children try it out and not hate it so that's a plus!

  We haven't used this as a freezer meal before. Not sure how well some of these ingredients would freeze.

This is really similar to a recipe that I made last night. Instead of salsa it called for rotel tomatoes (drained). I will try it with salsa next time (or if I don't have the rotel tomatoes). It was delicious!!
