Janckila's Chicken Tortilla Casserole

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I was born in Indiana farm country, enlisted in the military and was stationed in California. I grew up with a half acre garden and learned cooking, canning and freezing from my mother to preserve those delicious foods. Cooking is now a creative hobby for me. Coworkers suggest that I open my own restaurant and they never let a potluck go by without insisting I bring something unusual. My biggest pet peeve is hearing someone say I can't and never bothering to try doing something new. I love recipezaar. If you can't find it here, it can't be found.</p>
