Spicy Chicken Casserole

The mother of a friend taught me to make this..she is from Texas, so it is a little spicy. You can modify the tomatoes to the mild kind. ( I do for my 7 year old...she loves it)Or use spicy for adults. My whole family loves this recipe. Add a salad and bread for a quick easy meal.
