    Add 1 can of lowfat Cream of Chicken soup. Mix together. Put 1/2 bag of baked tortilla chips in casserole dish. Cover with meat mixture. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the grated fat-free cheese. Repeat layers. Put the rest of the cheese on top and bake until cheese is melted and bubbly.
    *Special Notes*

  • Chicken Quesidillas
    This is super easy, great tasting, and low fat...

    1 chicken breast-chopped
    1/2 can Healthy Request Cream of Chicken Soup
    1 sm. can chopped green chilis
    1/2 cup 2% shredded cheddar
    2 tsp. chili powder
    6 low fat tortillas

    Mix the first five ingredients and spread some on half of the tortilla, fold over the other half and bake in the oven for 15 min. at 350. I usually put one in the George Foreman grill for a few minutes. I serve them with salsa, lettuce, tomato and low-fat sour cream, serve fat-free refried beans on the side. About 7 points for one with beans!

    My local Mexican restaurant makes a version of this. I thought I'd try it at home and make it WW friendly. They turned out great! I posted it on the WW community recipe swap, too. Sorry, I do not have a nutritional info breakdown.
