We loved this recipe. I cooked chicken breasts and cut into small pieces and used Tostito scoops instead of taco shells. When it was done baking, I topped with crushed scoops & Old El Paso medium taco sauce. It's a keeper and passing along to my friends. Thanks for sharing!!

Very good and easy!! If you would like to turn this into a breakfast casserole, substitute scrambled eggs for chicken,add refried beans..fat free..and use red enchilada sauce instead of cheese sauce!
