Thank you very much for the recipe.... it was the one I have been searching for for 15 years now! Thank you again! There was one more I lost from My Great Recipes. It was called Mexican layered Casserole... I think. Anyhow, you layered boiled chicken, cheese, chiles, and I think some kind of corn chips in it. Would you happen to have that one also?
