I only gave it a few stars because I have not tried it yet, I have use tortilla chips in casseroles lots of times and used regular chips as a topping for casseroles (save your leftover chips and crumbs for this) that called for breadcrumbs so cannot wait to try this.

Grandma's Secret Tips!

Grandma usually served this potato casserole as a side dish, but in a pinch, she sometimes served it as the main dish. She served it over toast like she did creamed chipped beef or Welsh rarebit. She toasted 6 to 8 slices of bread until they were golden and cut each slice into quarters. Then she arranged the toast on individual plates and spooned the casserole over the top.
