2 tins chopped tomatoes with mild green chilies, undrained
2 tins condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
1 tin condensed cheddar cheese soup, undiluted
60ml milk
15ml ground cumin

Spread 60ml of soup mixture into each of two greased 13 x 9 inch baking dishes. Place 80ml chicken mixture down the centre of each tortilla. Roll up and place seam side down in baking dishes.
Pour remaining soup mixture over tops; sprinkle with cheese.
Bake one casserole, uncovered, at 180°C for 30-35 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted.

Cover and freeze the remaining casserole for up to 3 months.
To use frozen casserole: Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Cover and bake at 180°C for 45 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until heated through and cheese is melted.
