Makeover - How We Did It

This better-for-you alternative can save you 110 calories and 11g of fat, including 8g of sat fat per serving when compared with the traditional recipe. We did it by preparing it with PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese and KRAFT Mexican Style 2% Milk Finely Shredded Four Cheese, and decreased the amounts used for both.

Special Extra

Garnish each serving with 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro.

Variation

Prepare using corn tortillas. To prevent cracking, warm tortillas as directed on package before filling and baking as directed.

very fast and easy, especially b/c I used precooked chicken. also, I added the santa fe philly cream cheese for cooking instead of the neufchatel cheese and it was extra creamy and seasoned. I didn't think it needed the bell pepper since it had the salsa in it.

This dish was great and very easy to make! It was full of flavor! The only things I did different was that I cooked the chicken in the crock pot with seasonings the second time I made this. The shredded chicken from the crock pot turned out so much better! I also used a can of green chillis and used a can of rotel in replace of the salsa in the mixture and then used some salsa on top! I highly recommend cooking the chicken in the crock pot first!

Amazing! I only changed a few things instead of salsa I used enchilada sauce and in place of the bell pepers I used diced canned green chilies. It was phenomenal!
