I decided to do some experimenting,and came up with this layered Mexican pie. I love Mexican food. My husband not so much.I was shocked when he said he loved this dish. He even went back for a second helping. The pie has Chili,Cream cheese,Salsa,meat and Mexican cheese. My family loved it. There was not a morsel leftover. This is great as a main course, or appetizer. hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
