People don’t even use common sense anymore. If you don’t want to use canned chicken, cook your own. If you don’t want to use processed cheese, milk your cow and make your own. As he has said before most all recipes are a suggestion. Surely you’ll can take an idea and make it your own. I, for one, appreciate the time and effort they spent making the video.

You do a wonderful job showing how you prepare things. You are very detailed and make everything so simple. I wish my husband had learned how to cook but he really doesn’t have an interest in it. Your wife is very fortunate. I can’t wait to try this dish.

Great teaching style. Good for beginner cooks. Many hold up an ingredient for half of a nano second. I was reminded this recipe is in my church’s cookbook from the 80’s and I’ve forgotten to use it. I now have it bookmarked for next family meal. I appreciate the kindness shown to each other and that a special guest is acknowledged.

I love your daughters dog!!!! Sweet!!! Plus, I’m going to try this recipe for sure! 👍😁. Thank you Tom & Melissa! ❤️🙏. Deb. From Indiana.

I appreciate that you show all the ingredients first. It makes following you much easier. Thanks!

I like the way you spread everything out so evenly. I detest when some cooks leave a corner half empty so whoever gets that corner is cheated out of some ingredients.

A rotisserie chicken would be great too. This looks delicious. Thx

[suzonnekeller]

This looks yummers. I think I would add some black beans as well!

My Mom used to make the original version of this in the 80’s. It was a Rotel tomato recipe called Hot Rotel Casserole. It only uses 1 can of Cream of chicken and just regular crushed up basic unflavored yellow Tortilla Chips (if you want to avoid the MSG in the Doritos). We split the layers of the chips: one in the bottom as the first layer and the other as the last layer on the top. It tastes like Chilaquiles from the Mexican restaurant. The first time my Mom made it my Dad said “Yum! What is this called? Please keep making it”. I make this often for my own family whenever I buy a rotisserie chicken. I can smell it thru the video🤤🤗💛

I'm new with this channel. The recipes sound good and interesting. Tom (?) seems so comfortable talking on camera, and explains everything with ease. I would've guessed a teacher, and was glad to hear he was one. I bet he was a great teacher.

I watch for your videos every day, in case you share a new one. I too love the way you cook as well as how Melissa videos; you 2 are a great time. Thank you for preparing your meals so precise and neat, lots of your viewers notice that. I am making this dish today, as soon as the kids and grandkids come over. Thank you again for the time and effort putting these videos together. God bless you both

We love Mexican cuisine, soooo, I will probably add a black bean or refried bean layer and sprinkle some chopped cilantro in with the soup mixture. What I like about casseroles is you can always mix it up for variations. Bon appetit.

Years ago my son brought home a recipe for Mexican chicken and rice. His friend’s Mom had made it, and he loved it, so we’ve made it many times. It was made in a pot completely. I may try yours, but we really love this recipe, so not sure I’d replace that recipes for yours.

[debragriffith]

Made this for supper tonight and we all loved it! I used enchilada sauce instead of Rotel and fritos instead of doritos and my own home canned chicken instead of cans (had to use what I had) but it was really good. Thanks for the recipe.

[CandaceAustin-bvwo]

I love your show. I'm in north central Oregon watching you and watching heavy snow coming down.
Thank you my dear friend loves the recipes I share.
Bless you both

[leniabolton]

Love your recipes and you are a very clean and neat cook. No sloppiness what so ever. You take your time to do a good video, and that does make a big difference in how others love to follow you. Keep it up!

[roundabout]

I made this exactly as described, it was delicious. I ended up baking it for 50 minutes to get all the edges bubbly, it's pretty dense. The next day leftovers were really good too.

[christinawinningham]

I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your videos, I'm not much of a cook since my husband passed but you inspired me to try the Mexican chicken casserole & I liked it so much that I just made it again but this time I used ground beef & condensed tomato soup, I did it exactly the same with these ingredients & it is so good ! Thanks for the inspiration and God bless you and your family!

[MilesFarrell]

Love this! I've been making a variation of this since the early 80's. Great thing about it is that you can change it up just about every time you make it. For the first layer I use plain Doritos, then chicken, onions & chilis then cheese (Velveeta & Cheddar/Jack). Then black olives & diced pimentos. Just one can of Cream of Chicken and one can Rotel. With the Rotel, no need for pepper and with the soup and cheese, no need for more salt. I mix the soup/Rotel with Mexican oregano, cumin, garlic powder. and spread over the top.
I never had a name for it, but one time a friend from out of town was staying with us and he asked for me to make that chicken stuff, you know, that chicken s***. So for the last 20+ years we have called it "Chicken Sh**". LOL!
Love your channel by the way!

[lydianewman]

Ahh, this sure looks tasty! Love your channel, your recipes, your hospitality. Feel as though I am right there with you two!
