    Mexican-Style Green Chile Chicken Casserole, This casserole is even better the next day, that is if it even makes it overnight! —you may omit the jalapeno pepper if desired, we like onions so I always use two and lots of fresh garlic, you can increase the green chiles to whatever amount you desire, and use as much shredded cheese and cooked chicken as desired, the amounts listed are only a guideline, this also works well with cooked turkey, prep time does not include cooking the chicken — this is *very* good!, Jalapenos to taste are a must in this recipe!!!, Made this last night it sounded like a creamy comfort dinner I made it using tostada shells because that’s what I had and added 1c of corn My Hubby liked it but I was on the fence Before putting away the leftovers I crunched up a few more tostada shells and added a handful of pepitas Warmed up for breakfast and yes lunch, I’m a believer I’ll make this again Seams like the kind of recipe that you can mess around with
