Love Mexican? Whip up this quick & easy southwestern chicken casserole using prepared and packaged foods that tastes like you’re south of the border.
We love Mexican food in our house, whether it’s the standard tacos, enchiladas or burritos or a dish that incorporates all our most loved south of the border flavors.
This chicken casserole is easy to make, using canned, prepackaged and already prepared food. It’s great to whip up on a night where everyone is going in different directions and eating at different times because it heats up so well. It turned out scrumptious! My husband even said that it was delicious and that is a high compliment coming from him!
By the way, it freezes well too and is great for taking into work for lunch.

Crush 1/3 of the tortilla chips into the bottom of the baking dish, spreading evenly. Pour 1/3 of the potato mixture on top of the chips and top with 1/3 of the cheese. Repeat twice more so that you have 3 layers.
