* = Ro-tel is a brand name for canned diced tomatoes with diced chili peppers added.  

Assembly Directions:

In a large bowl, mix together the chicken, soup, tomatoes and tapioca.  Stir until well mixed.

 

Freezing Directions:

Put the chicken mixture in a one-gallon freezer bag.  Seal, label and freeze.

 

Serving Directions:

Thaw the chicken mixture at least overnight in the refrigerator.  Spray the inside of a 3 quart slow cooker with cooking spray.  Tear 2 tortillas into pieces and line the bottom of the crock.  Add 1/3 of the chicken mixture, 1/3 of the chopped onion, and 2/3 C. of cheese.  Repeat the layers of torn tortillas, chicken mixture, onion and cheese two more times.  Cover and cook on Low for 6 hours or on High for 3 hours.

 

Tammy’s Comments:

Another family favorite!  I really like how the flavors of this recipe meld together.  I’m a wimp for spicy foods, and this wasn’t too spicy for me at all.  One recipe of the chicken mixture that gets frozen equals 6 C.  If you make a double batch in a 6 quart slow cooker, use 9 tortillas… 3 in each layer.
