This recipe was very good, maybe a touch on the dry side, but nothing a good dollap of sour cream on top couldn't fix.

I have a very similar recipe that I just love:)the great thing about this is using tortilla pieces instead of rolled up tortillas so much easier!This made a great casserole-gotta love that cream cheese:)I picked FarahC for the Pick A Chef Contest 2005--Thank you!PeggyLynn

Made this last night just as posted--have a similar recipe that calls for rolling the mixture individually in the tortillas--this is much easier! Both my picky teenagers had second helpings and that's saying something! Thanks for posting!
