My mother would make this for me as a child, and now I make it for my family. My husband loves it, and it's very easy to make. It's cheesy, and the chile peppers give it a little kick.

TORTILLA CHIP CASSEROLE

This is a versatile dinner. Nothing gourmet - just cheap, fast and easy. You can substitute what you have on hand. Don't have kidney beans- I have use cannellini beans or black beans. Only have a ½ pound of ground beef- that works too- just add an extra can of beans. My family loves this.
