It is pretty safe to say that my husband loves a good casserole. He may raise his eyebrows when I first mention what I am making, but there is something about putting down a hot dish with cheese on top that makes him happy! Who wouldn’t be? I’ve been looking to find the next best thing in our rotation and hopefully yours! The Mexican Stuffed Shells just keep showing up as number one on this site day after day and they are fabulous, we love them too, so I know that if you all loved those you are going to love this too! The best part? A lot less calories and you’d never know it! It’s creamy, it’s cheesy, the tortilla chips give a nice crunch, and it’s warm and feels good on a cold winters night.
I actually chose to make this in two 8×8″ pans. That way, I could cook one up for dinner and freeze the other for another night. I wasn’t sure how freezing would work out with the tortilla chips, but it was just fine! Granted, it only lasted in my freezer for exactly one week before it was requested again!
