Chicken Santa Fe


Big surprise- another Mexican dish coming from my kitchen :)  I saw this at Pass the Peas Please and immediately bookmarked it.  Very yummy and very cheesy!  From my picture it almost looks like all cheese beneath the black olives but trust me there is some chicken and chips in there as well.  I like spicy but because I require the boys to eat whatever we are eating I have been trying to tone down the spice a little, so I used 1/2 of the recommended jalapenos.  I would have liked the full amount but 1/2 was really good too and the bonus- my boys gobbled it right up!
