To say that we liked this recipe would be putting it mildly...we loved it! I have never had green chili that had a cream base, so I was intrigued by this recipe. I really liked the ease and preparation time as well. Not only was it quick and easy, but it was full of flavor. After looking at the ingredient quantities I decided to double the recipe, and I'm really glad that I did. I served the chili with Mexican cornbread for dinner, and the following morning I served it over scrambled eggs. Yum! This recipe was a real winner at my house and I've had a request to make this again soon. I might even try it with cubed pork next time. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe...it is definitely a keeper!<br/>**Made for Spring 2012 PAC**
