  1. I made this, but I made some changes and errors that damaged the end results. Feeling very stupid. I had to use salsa instead of picante sauce because the latter was too high in sodium; I also had to use lowfat versions of the dairy products. I think this would have been much better if I hadn't done any of those things. I added some chipotle and ancho pepper powders, along with cayenne pepper, for some more heat. That change actually was good. Thanks for a quick, easy meal!
     
  2. This was so quick and easy, and delicious. I would have given 5 stars except that I usually make my own sauces from scratch for authentic Mexican flavor. However, for a "cheater" recipe, this was fantastic, and much quicker than scratch cooking. My only changes: I held out the cheese and mixed it with the reserved sauce and added about 2 teaspoons of sambal oelek for a little extra kick, then put all that on top before sticking it in the oven.
     
  3. Such an easy and tasty dinner. Perfect for a weeknight meal!
     
  4. This was super simple to make and pretty tasty. I didn't have the onions and wish I had as I think it would have given it more flavor. Thank you for a great and simple recipe!
     
  5. Super hit with DH and I quite enjoyed it to. I did use fresh cooked chicken breast instead of the pre-cooked (I have a real surplus of chicken currently) and cut the recipe back to 2 servings and added some Ortega Green Chili to my portion. They came out yummy and made a very good dinner with a green salad and iced tea. Thanks hon. :D
