Chicken Tortilla Chip Casserole

this recipe comes from the blog 5$ dollar dinners, just click on her recipe index and you'll be set for dinner for life!!


This recipe is very versatile. If you don’t have pinto beans, use kidney or black beans instead. I’m a big fan of using what you have on hand. If your family likes more or less flavor, adjust spices accordingly!

about 1 cup diced cooked chicken
1 small can green chilies
