Ingredients :

  • 2 whole wheat tortilla
  • 1 lb ground chicken, or ground turkey
  • 1 can (14 oz) tomato sauce

Directions :

  2. Spray a 9 x 9 casserole (with a lid) with cooking spray. Tear up whole wheat tortillas and place them so they cover the entire bottom of the dish.
  3. Sprinkle 1/2 the cheese on the tortillas, spread refried beans over the cheese and then top the beans with chicken and tomato mixture.
  4. Sprinkle the top of the casserole with crushed chips and remaining cheese.
  5. Cover and bake until the cheese is bubbly. Remove the lid and let the cheese brown slightly.
