I got this recipe about 20 years ago from work. I have made it thousands of times. I serve it cut in squares with left over green chile over the top. I use 1 large and 1 small can of chiles. My recipe shows just 2 large cans. But it dosn't show the oz of cans. I like it thick when done. Like Lasagna.
