Mexican "Chicken" Casserole

I’ve made this recipe many times and it is always a winner.  Some people have made comments online that they don’t like that the tortillas get soggy from the liquid – but I think it’s just fine.  

I use Trader Joe’s vegetarian chicken strips, but normally follow the recipe.  This time I doubled the amount of cream cheese (4 oz.) so as to be more creamy – it worked!  I used medium salsa, but added a bit more cumin, so there was a good spiciness to the casserole – not too spicy, not bland.  The green pepper provides a crunch effect to the dish (good, because everything else is soft).  I really like this casserole because not only is it very scrumptious, it is easy to make and high in protein – great for a vegetarian!


Enjoy!
