    OH YEAH! We had this tonight and it was awesome:tongue: The only twist we put on it was using a hot sauce called "mad butcher" (Hy-Vee stores in Iowa) and we shredded the chicken then put it over rice. It was fantastic. Have some left and can't wait for leftovers.:smooched::smooched:

    Made it last night and had the leftovers tonight. I thought it was good but I did leave out the sour cream and the cream of mushroom stuff (lactose) and I thought, along with my daughter and husband, was good. It would make it again. I served it over spanish rice. Yummy

    Hello everbody, I'm thinking of making this recipe with the slow cooker and I'm a little new to it :embarassed: lol Do I cook the chicken before I add it to the slow cooker? And also, If I wanted to add the black beans and corn to this, would I put those in at the beginning with everything else (frozen corn, canned beans)? Thank you!

    You don't have to cook the chicken before. I allowed mine to thaw overnight, tossed it in that morning. Add everything you'd like up front. Just pile it all in. Turn it on in the a.m. (on low or medium) and let it go all day until dinner!

    Made this tonight...very yummy! I found a lower sodium taco seasoning and only used 1/2 a packet (still a tad bit salty). I didn't add in the full amount of sour cream, but rather just put a dab of ff sour cream on the top of each serving. Served over brown rice and frozen peas. Very yummy!!!

    Oh MY GooooooooooooooooooooooooDNESS! :happy: :drinker: :love: :love: :love:

    I made this last night for supper and it is now a new family favorite!! It is extremely easy to make and is so tasty that you wouldn't think that it is only 157 calories a serving!!! WOW! i had mine over brown rice and it was delicious. I told my boyfriend after he was done eating it and commenting on how good it was the calorie amount in it and he said " Well this is the last time I eat this! It is way tooo healthy!" haha of course he was joking but eating right does not mean that you have to eat things that are not flavorous!!! Enjoy!!

    I saw a post similar to this by you Missy:wink::tongue: in one of these pages...so you must have liked it rather well then?:laugh:

    Great recipe, I've made it now several times, so versatile to try it many ways!
    Looking forward to hearing more ways that folks find to spice it up, so to speak:flowerforyou:

    Yes, I think I've made it a couple times now. I truly do like it. I think this time I may add corn. I use more salsa than directed too, and a can of diced Mexican styled tomatoes. Mine is very soupy. I take some of the excess liquid and cook my rice in that. The whole meal is flavorful, and although it's more than 157 calories, it's well within reason for a dinner.

    Hey Lauryn, thanks for sharing what additions you add... I make it a bit different each time... great idea on using some of the liquid for the rice making!:drinker: :tongue:
