Expert Tips

Any cooked meat can be substituted for the chicken in this Southwest favorite.

You could use Colby-Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese instead of the Mexican cheese blend.

This recipe is very good. I used leftovers and it turned out great. I did not bake it,however, but put it in my George Foreman grill instead. This took less time, and tasted excellent.
