Beans and Chicken Tortilla Casserole image

A delicious and easy casserole. You can add more or less cheese to suit your taste. Also, the small corn tortillas work nicely instead of the larger ones....you just need to add more. The leftovers taste great the next day too!

This casserole was a little bland for my taste. I think it could have used a bit more seasoning.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I used rotisserie chicken to save time, and the casserole still came out delicious.
