Just made this for the first time for dinner tonight. It was so ridiculously good I thought the 3 of us were going to eat the whole pan! Super easy too. If you like Chicken Rotel, you will like this. I will admit I put WAY more cheese in it than it calls for.. because I almost always do with every recipe... there's no such thing as enough cheese! This is another one going into my "regular recipes". Loved it!
