A simple, satisfying main dish that our family enjoys. You can use reduced-fat cheeses and sour cream, but don't use the fat-free choices. Serve with a dollop of sour cream, sliced black olives, more salsa, and warmed tortillas.

CINCO DE MAYO CHICKEN CASSEROLE
When I wasn't able to get to the market for Cinco de Mayo, I came up with this recipe. You can use fresh corn and bell peppers. There is certainly room for improvements, but I was impressed with the flavors. Serve with a great salad with Salsa Ranch dressing.
