Tortilla Chip Casserole- a Cooking Light Recipe

Here is another winner that I tried form this month’s Cooking Light Magazine: Tortilla Chip Casserole!

This is an all encompassing dinner, you really don’t need anything else to go with it.  I made fruit smoothies for dessert and called it a day.  We ate every bit of this and only because I snuck out a small square for my lunch the next day, did I even have any leftover!
