*Note: 11/6/96 I added cumin, garlic salt, and cayenne. This was very good!
I only used half the baked tortilla squares in the casserole. The kids and
I used the other half for "dipping". Dave would like more tort. squares
baked in. Of course we served this with sour cream, salsa, olives,
tomatoes, etc.
