I want that cheese to be my blankie.
Oh hey! I survived the gators yesterday when kayaking. And the sharks. I guess crocks and sharks can coexist in salt water? Nasty, is all I have to say about that.
HOWEVER, I was this close to losing my shiz over the 18,264 spiders in our kayak. Ummmmm, I do not do bugs. Never have, never will. Barfy. McGee. And these things were everywhere. EVERYWHEEERE I tell you. One little troll was making a FRICKIN’ WEB between my jorts and the side of the kayak and ohhhhhh myyyyyyy lskfjsldkjfsljdf, that did not go over exactly well.
A) I stood up in the kayak and started screaming. I guess you’re not supposed to do that in a teeny boat in a large body of water? Oh, oopsie.
B) I used my bottle of water as a sword to protect myself against their evil ways. Apparently my clanking and unruly hysterics were obnoxiously loud and frowned upon by the other kayakers next to me? Sorry, but I WAS BASICALLY BEING SPUN INTO MY OWN WEB OF DEMISE.
But I’m alive and my breathing has returned to a semi-normal pace. AND I’m excited to tell you that I’m going to climb to the top of a lighthouse today!
And when I get to the top of it I’m going to grasp the railing, gaze longingly into the distance and sing “Candle On The Water” from Pete’s Dragon! And then probably fall or get shoved off by a local.
And if I do we can just go back to plan A for the funeral, cool?
As my last words I’d like to beg you to make this chicken dorito. I’m SURE you’ve made a version or 45 of it before. It’s basically a mexi-casserole filled with crack. Creamy, spicy, chicken-y, cheesy crack.
She looks kind of sloppy, I know. But isn’t that what dreams are made of? Something?
S.N.U.G.G.L.E. I.T.
Forget the fork and just stick a large funnel in your mouth hole.
Chicken Dorito:
What it took for 4:
* 1 rotisserie chicken, shredded
* 2 Tbs. taco seasoning
* 1 (13.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
* 1 (13.5 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
* 1 (14.5 oz) can rotel
* 2-3 cups white cheddar cheese
* 1/2 bag blue corn tortilla chips (or you could use the traditional Doritos)
Preheat oven to 350.
In a bowl, combine the chicken, soups, rotel and taco seasoning. Mix well.
In a large casserole dish (or two smaller ones), spread the chips along the bottom. Pour the chicken mixture over the chips, followed by the shredded cheddar cheese.
Cover and bake 30 minutes. Remove covering and flip the oven to broil to get the cheese brown and bubbly!
Garnish with a little chopped fresh parsley and deeeevouuuuur.
Are you kidding me with this?!?! Yum!!! As soon as chicken doesn’t make me want to throw up, I am making this!!!
How have I never heard of this before?!?! Oh mama! When it’s cool enough to turn my oven on this weekend, I’m totally making this… and not sharing it with anyone.
Wwwaaaaaannnnnnt! This looks ridiculously incredible. Glad you made it threw the swamps
*through. Stupid iPhone!
What a great use for blue corn chips!
I’m so glad you escaped the web of demise!
So…my friends told me that their memories of me as a kid was pretty much me screaming my head off when a TINY bee came within 100 ft of my territory. I feel you…but glad you survived.
These look delish!!!
I’m so glad you survived and were able to bring us this little cheesy blankie comfort dish today. I don’t think my life would be the same without it. Or you.
I’ve never made a casserole like this- I don’t really do casserole but this looks so good I might have to change my mind! Do the chips get soggy??
A few of them do, yes! It’s all one slop-a-licious mess.
I love Doritos and love making savory recipes with chips! They just add somethin’ somethin!
YUM!!!!
I don’t do bugs, sharks or snakes. I hate them, all of them. So glad that you survived the kayaking trip so that you could make this delicious casserole.
lol this sounds like what happened to my husband out riding his bike the other morning and I’m not even remotely kidding. he swear the spider was the size of a walnut too. nasty. heeby jeebies x 10000000
Haha best opening line EVER. This looks great!

Oh man, Pete’s Dragon. Now I want to climb to the top of a lighthouse and sing too!
Also, this looks like heaven. Cheesy, gooey, chicken heaven.

This.is.insane.
I will be making it tonight!
d*mn this looks really good! dinner this weekend for sure!
I want to go to there.
It looks delicious!
And, I am adoring your Instagram pictures of your vacation.
Yum!! Cheese and chips are two of my favorite things! Delish!
This recipe is amazing! I featured you on my blog tonight to share this with my followers. I credited Bev Cooks and linked it to you and they have to click on your link to get the recipe. Hope you get lots of traffic! Thank you!
Sorry, didn’t leave you the blog, it is richestoragsbydori.blogspot.com
That’s where I saw this recipe, Dori!
I see extra time will be needed on the ole elliptical after ingesting this, but can’t be helped-gotta have it!!!!
Been making this for years but not with the blue Doritos or taco seasoning! Yum. Love this stuff especially in the cooler weather I hope is coming soon to the Heartland! TFS
Goodness – that really does look like heaven on plate! Going ot have to give this one a try, preferably when no one is home and I don’t have to share it
So I surprised my wife with this dish last night. She was floored. She said it was the best thing I’ve cooked in a while
I deviated from your recipe in that I made my own salsa rather than buying Rotel. I cant pass up using fresh cilantro and tomatoes. Also I poached my own chicken and shredded it into the sauce.
Thank you thank you and thank you for teaching me this recipe
OMGsh! This looks soo yummy!!
I can’t wait to trythis you already had me singing I’ll be your candle on the waaater.
Made this tonight — hubby says it’s a keeper!!!! Super easy & so yummy!!
My husband made this for me as a “welcome home” dinner after I’d been away at a conference eating nothing but bad banquet food for a week. I won’t even pretend there was any left for seconds. I’ll happily admit that we ate the whole thing in one sitting. That was exponentially better than coming home to flowers and take-out – or anything else. Thank you!!
I have 10 oz cans of the soup. Do they make 13.5 oz cans? Should I drain the rotel? How long should I broil it?
I like the sound of using the tortilla chips in a casserole like this!
If that bag O’ chicken in my fridge isn’t fodder for dangerous organisms then I am SOOO making this for dinner tonight.
This looks like the perfect meal to get ready for all the good Superbowl eatin’ going on tomorrow! My boyfriend is the pickiest person in the world, and even he’s excited about this dish. Can’t wait to try, thanks for sharing!
And btw, you’re the bravest person I know for staying in the kayak with all the bugs. I look like a ninja trying to escape any bug that’s near me. I would’ve dove into the water for sure- I’d take sharks over bugs any day.
I’m going to make this tonite ! I’ll let you know how it is later… But it looks deeeeeeeliiiccoussss!
