This is an additional entry to my recipe I shared a couple days ago which you can find here:

To kick that recipe up a notch for a party, get together, or if you just want to make it more exciting for yourself or your family then you will need these items in addition to the original items
*1 cup reduced fat 2% cheese (I used Sargento Mexican blend)
*6 ounces cooked grilled chicken breast strips (or lean turkey or beef if you want but stats below are based on chicken)
*2 cups lettuce (I used spring mix but use whatever kind you like)
*2 small tomatoes or 1 medium size
To begin preheat oven to 400. Make chips using 8 tortillas or wraps exactly as described in previous post. Remove chips to cool and leave oven on. If you want you can make chips day before just make sure to store in airtight glass container to keep crunchy.
Next prepare a double batch of the bean dip and set aside. You can do this step a day or 2 ahead also.
If you are using frozen precooked chicken you will need to unthaw it first by warming in a pan on stove. If you are using chicken you cooked yourself or refrigerated pre-cooked chicken then skip this step. If the chicken is not seasoned already (mine was) then please add some seasoning to it now. Whatever you want to add-grill seasoning for chicken is a great option or just salt and pepper is perfect too! Make sure chicken is chopped into small bite size pieces too.
In a square dish layer the precooked chicken in bottom. Add bean dip on top evenly then evenly add cheese on top of that. Heat in oven for 10-15 minutes of until cheese is melted and everything is nice and warm.
While dip is heating chop lettuce & tomato.
Layer lettuce then tomatoes and serve with your freshly made chips.
It doesn’t look quite as pretty once you start scooping it out so If you want to make it extra cute you can portion out the dip into little heat safe clear cups when it first comes out of the oven then add lettuce & tomato on top to garnish. It tastes delicious either way though;)
This serves 6 people
You can double this version to make in a 9 x 13 pan for more servings if your party is larger.
