Enough of this unsubscribing, already.  How about a
new recipe?  Tried this at a party the other day (all
CH's so I couldn't add any heat - a little Apple
Smoked would have made it even better, and it did for
what was on my plate), and it disappeared immediately.

In an ungreased 13 X 9 X 2 baking pan, tear up a half
dozen fresh corn tortillas.  Cover with a thick layer
of your favorite chile verde recipe, then a layer of
grated Colby Jack (1/4 to 1/2 lb depending on your
preference).  Put down another layer of tortilla, a
healthy bunch of large roasted green chile pieces,
more chile verde and another bunch of cheese.  Bake at
350 for about 40 minutes, then turn on the broiler and
crisp the top for 5 minutes.

I also poured a cup of chicken bullion over the top
before baking since my chile verde was really thick.  

Methinks a layer of sliced fresh habs would have gone
quite nicely, too.
