Instructions
- Set your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat and sauté the diced onion until it becomes tender.
- Incorporate the chunks of beef cream cheese, shredded chicken, condensed cream of chicken soup, diced tomatoes with green chilies, black beans, chili powder, and cumin into the pan.
- Mix thoroughly until the cream cheese has dissolved and the ingredients are well combined.
- Layer one-third of the tortilla chips in a greased 9×13-inch baking pan. Evenly distribute half of the chicken mixture over the chips.
- Sprinkle half of the shredded Mexican cheese on top, then add the remaining chicken mixture.
- Cover with the rest of the tortilla chips and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 30 minutes, then serve hot.

- Try adding diced tomatoes with jalapeños for an extra burst of flavor.
- Switch out shredded chicken for tofu or tempeh for a vegetarian twist.
