Instructions to make to make Not Really Mexican, Chicken Manicotti

1. Preheat oven to 350*
2. Go ahead and cook your manicotti, but only just to al dente (7 mins is what I prefer)
3. Gather ingredients for the chicken mixture: cheese, sour cream, chilies, onion, and chicken.
4. Drain chicken well and separate with a fork or your fingers.
5. In a large bowl mix 1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese, 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, sour cream, chilies and half the diced onion if you are using it into the chicken.

13. Top with remaining salsa mixture.
14. Cover with foil and bake at 350* for 30 mins
15. Remove the foil and now add the rest of your cheeses (1/2 C of cheddar and 1/2 C of monterey jack) and bake for another 10 mins or until cheese is melted (or browned like a real person eats it)
