- 4 ounces light cream cheese
- 4 ounces canned diced green chiles
- 15 ounces black beans drained and rinsed

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease the inside of an 8-inch x 8-inch casserole dish. Set aside
- Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken, salsa, and cream cheese to the pan and stir until cheese is melted. Add the black beans and chiles and cook until everything is warmed through.
- Place a layer of crushed tortilla chips in the bottom of the casserole dish. Then top the chips with the chicken mixture and spread into an even layer. Top the casserole off with tomatoes, green onions, and cheese.
- Bake for 30 minutes until hot and bubbling. Remove from the oven and cut into 6 portions. We like to top with casserole with sour cream and green onions.
