One of the assignments of The Cooking Cure was to find five dinner recipes to try. I had a brick of cream cheese (neufchatel, actually) in the fridge and was looking for a way to use it. Before surgery I would have made a big three-egg omelet and put a big slab of the cheese in it. Three or four more breakfasts like that and it would have been gone. But I can't eat that much anymore and it would take me a long time to use the cheese otherwise. So I came across this recipe and it seemed super easy; just toss the stuff in a crockpot and forget about it. I'm all for that.
This recipe made quite a bit, which is good if you have a few people in the house. But since it's just me and Bob, and I can't eat much at one sitting, guess who's going to be eating this for lunch or dinner all week??
I liked it, but it seemed to be missing something. At first I thought it's because my taste buds are changing, but Bob said the same thing. We both agreed that next time I should add some taco seasoning and maybe some green onions.
Here's the recipe I used: Crockpot Southwest Chicken
It looks foggy because of the steam.
I put mine on a small 6" tortilla. I was only able to eat about 3/4 of it. Next time I will skip the tortilla, or maybe serve over baked tortilla chips.
