    The first time I saw the nutritional facts for those, I just about fainted. I have a girlfriend that LOVES them, and I have a seriously hard time watching her eat them. Sure they are good, but not 1,930 calories of good. I'd rather have a salad, thank you.

    Amazing how many calories add up when you eat out, isn't it! Thanks for posting your recipe. Looks delish! Will certainly have to try it!

    By the way.... my favorite thing at Chili's is their Chocolate Lava Cake..... to die for.... but I can just imagine how many calories is in that yummy delight! :noway:

    YUM! Thanks for the recipe.

    When I didn't care what I ate I would always order the regular Chicken Crispers with corn and fries and loads of honey mustard sauce... no wonder I am obese!!!! Never again...

    bUmP!!!

    you're my hero!

    we've actually worked out a chili's tactic - my husband and i order the caribbean salad and the triple dipper with honey chipotle chicken crispers, southwestern eggrolls and fried cheese. i eat half the salad, two cheese sticks and one each of the other appetizers - it comes out to 930 calories - not wonderful, but it's great for when we go out with friends or have something to celebrate - and the sodium isn't out the roof like some other places.

    but...i am majorly looking forward to trying out this recipe! i would not mind shaving another 700 calories off of my chili's fix!

    Exactly why I like cooking my meals at home. You can control what you and your family eats!

    where do you find chipotle pepper puree? i know it's probably at the grocery store, but would it be with baking supplies, spices, is it refrigerated? anyone know? i'm terrible at finding new things at the store!

    I bought chipotles in adobo sauce in a can and pureed them in my blender! Same thing.

    Yummy cannot wait to try this. Those were my go-to meal, too. "cept, I would nix the corn and get double mashed potatoes <blush>

    Check the Mexican food section in your market. I have a can of those peppers in my pantry now. Most recipes don't call for much, so I've been waiting for a few recipes to come along and use the whole thing. Did you use the whole thing or just a few peppers and sauce?

    I am totally feeling you on this post.... I am so ticked tonight! I just started using MyFitness Plus and I went out to eat at Chili's and had the Chicken Club Quesadillas.. it set me back 1780 calories.. I haven't eaten that many calories in one day in who knows how long....,man did I wish I had MY FITNESS PAL on my phone before I made that choice.. should have stuck with the Margarita Grilled Chicken. No wonder our society is huge with plates that exceed a full day of calories in one plate...GRR! Thanks for the recipe!

    Only used 2 tsp of the pureed peppers.
