Ammmazing Mexican Chicken Casserole

Submitted by Dane Townsend

"This is a wonderful chicken casserole that not only clears out the cabinets but is mighty tasty. It can be frozen in a vacuum sealed container and reheated. Alternately it can be prepared in advance and refrigerated overnight before baking. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!"
