Wonderful. Creamy, cheesy, easy, quick and tastes SO good. We loved this. I was a bit concerned that this might be too spicy for my mild son, but not at all. The cheese helps contol the spiceyness. We put some guacomole on the top to serve, side of chips and we were set. THANKS CBW!!!!

I've been making this many, many times since 2008 & just realized I never gave it a review. This is the best and so easy! Satisfies our craving for Mexican food. If there are any leftovers, I freeze in small portions for lunches. I use rotisserie chicken pulled from the bone.

I have made this recipe at least 5 times now, and it has completely obliterated my old recipe. I think if I went back to the old ways, there would be a revolt! Thanks so much! :)

This was just the fix I was craving. I too used Shredded Chicken for Enchiladas from JT's mom and it was just fantastic. A people pleaser! Looking forward to making it again.
