I honestly thought this recipe was a royal pain to make b/c of the cheesy blah sauce. I will not make it again.

I thought that this was very good but I will shred the chicken next time instead of leaving it in chunks.

This was a great recipe, the only other thing I would change is to make it a little more spicy. I split the 1/2 C mayo and made it 1/4 C mayo, 1/4 C sour cream. Will definatly make again!

I thought this was NASTY. If I could give zero stars, I would. I was skeptical at first glance because of the first ingredient. I shouldn't have even made it. I'll probably be throwing the entire meal away. It could taste better if you sub cream of chicken soup for the miracle whip/flour and cilantro/chopped green chilies for the parsley. Maybe this just wasn't to my taste. I'm not a picky eater at all. I just thought this was disgusting.

Made this for dinner tonight. I did not have any left over cooked chicken so I just boiled some in a pot of seasoned water and shredded before adding to recipe. Really tasty and easy. I will definitely make again.

I made this recipe for my family & a friend who just broke her right wrist. Her family loved it & served w/side of jalapenos. I would make again and add onions, jalapenos & serve w/salsa. Maybe nachos on the for crunch

This was great! My boys 16 and 18 just loved it. I'm going to add some spicy salso next time to give it alittle more bite. Great choice if you love mexican food.
