1 can black beans -- rinsed and drained
2 cups fat-free sour cream
2 cups shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese
4 ounce chopped green chilies
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
5 large spinach tortillas -- cut into 2-inch strips
1/2 cup salsa -- mild, medium or hot

All of the measurements were approximately!! Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat a lasagna pan with cooking spray. Cut chicken into 1 inch pieces. Transfer chicken to a large bowl and add beans, sour cream, 1 cup of shredded cheese, chilies, cumin, salsa and pepper; mix well and set aside.Arrange half of tortillas in bottom of prepared lasagna pan, overlapping pieces to cover bottom of pan. Top tortillas with half of chicken mixture, layer with remaining tortillas and then top with remaining chicken mixture. Sprinkle with remaining cup of cheese.Bake until filling is bubbly and cheese is melted, about 30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing into 12 pieces. Serves 12
