Chicken Tortilla & Rice Casserole image

I got the original recipe when I worked at Lowell Farms, an organic rice company. I originally used their organic jasmine rice in this recipe. It is very good and has a distinct tast much different than regular white rice. It gives the dish a lot of flavor. It is hard for me to find unless I go back to my hometown. I added chicken to the recipe to make it a main dish. I have not made this in a long time and just recently found my recipe again. I am posting for safe keeping. http://www.lowellfarms.com

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover chicken and rice. It's also a great meal to freeze for later.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover tortillas. I just cut them into strips and added them to the casserole.

This casserole was a little too spicy for my kids. I would use less chili powder next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out too dry. I would add some more liquid next time.

This casserole is a little bland for my taste. I would add some extra spices next time.

I'm not a fan of cilantro so I left it out of this casserole. It was still delicious.

I'm a vegetarian so I used tofu instead of chicken in this casserole and it was still delicious. I also added some extra vegetables for a healthier meal.
