I didn't doctor up this recipe as others had suggested (I wish I had). It definitely is bland if you don't do anything to it. HOWEVER, it sounds like it can be saved with either using Rotel OR adding some chilies to it. I WILL be trying this again with some suggestions.

I added ground cumin, chipotle chili powder, garlic powder & onion powder to soup mixture. I used Rotel brand diced tomatoes. I layered with flour tortillas & for my top layer I crushed corn tortilla chips that I then topped with shredded Mexican blend cheese. For the chicken, I boiled it with 4 cut cloves garlic, 1 bay leaf, fresh cracked salt & pepper; when cooked & cooled, I then used poultry sheers to cut it up and sprinkled chipotle chile powder over the pieces, tossing well before adding to soup mixture. If I had 1 can of diced green chilies, I would have added that as well for more dimension. The basic recipe is very good, but we enjoy more 'dimension' in our recipes. So many possibilities & variations here on a very good, family friendly recipe !

I thought the recipe was good but not Mexican enough. I added 2 cans of Rotel tomatoes and 1 tbs of cumin. This really gives it some punch and my wife and I love it. Give it a try!

I substituted Rotel tomatoes for a little extra kick. This was great with my fried green tomatoes and Volcano Cake!

I love this recipe! Instead of using plain tortillas, I use Nacho Cheese Dorritos. The flavor is awsome and my kids can't get enough of it!

This was definitely alright for the little time & effort it requires, but really is not especially 'Mexican' as the recipe is given. Extra seasoning, picante sauce, etc. as other posters have suggested may help.

I used to make this with tons of ingredients including the chicken. This is just as delicious as the long version. For an adult version, substitute picante sauce or a dash of Louisiana Hot Pepper sauce. Can't believe how easy this was - can't beat the taste.
