Navajo Taco Casserole

This is a favorite of my family.  I love it because it gives you the taste of Navajo Tacos without the fat and work of making the fry bread! 


3 cans or 5 cups of chili ( I use either the canned turkey chili or leftover meatless chili that I've made and frozen)

12 frozen whole grain rolls, thaw them but don't allow them to rise

2 c reduced fat cheese

Lettuce, tomatoes, sliced olives, sour cream, salsa

Pour chili into a sprayed 9 x 13 pan.  Cover with 1 1/2 c of cheese.  Cut each of the rolls into two pieces and place them over the chili in the pan.  Bake at 375 for about 20 - 25 minutes.  Remove from oven.  Top with remaining cheese and allow to bake for 10 more minutes. 

Serve with lettuce, tomatoes, sliced olives, fat free sour cream and your favorite salsa.

Makes 8 servings
