CHICKEN QUESADILLA CASSEROLE



Chicken Quesadilla Casserole image

A good mexican casserole that is also decently healthy! To make it truly guilt free, grill/boil the chicken instead of sauteing, substitute light cheese (or use less), and use corn or whole wheat tortillas. The difference is truly subtle, and can have a major impact on calories!

You can substitute the jalepenos for a milder pepper if you prefer to have yours a little less kicked up. or even just cut back on...
