Casserole Making Tips -
Green Chilies
Green chilies can be found in the supermarket in small cans. Fresh green chilies are known as Anaheim chilies and are considered a mild chili pepper.

Casserole Making Tips -
Boneless Chicken Breast
Boneless chicken breasts can be found in most supermarkets. They are one of the leanest meats you can buy, and one of the best sources for animal protein. Fresh boneless chicken breasts should be used within a few days of purchase. Frozen chicken breasts will last several months in the freezer.
