Introduction
A low-carb casserole that will please even the non-dieters.The chiles can be found at any international market. To lighten the calorie load, I use 2% Mexican blend shredded cheese and 1% milk. Also, to speed this recipe up, I often use chicken breasts off an already-cooked rotisserie from the store. A low-carb casserole that will please even the non-dieters.
