This was a very tasty version of King Ranch Casserole. I do think it serves far more than 4 people though. I reduced quanties and had much more than two sevings. I used 1 can each of the soup, rotel, mushrooms, and used a large can of cooked chicken breast. The recipe does not specify whether to drain anything. (I did drain the mushrooms & chicken.) As I was layering I ended up adding an additional few more than 10 tortillas. I also added a chopped & seeded jalapeno for a bit of additional heat. This is comfort food and a potluck classic in Texas. Thank you for submitting your version! Reviewed for PAC~ Fall '07.
