"The taste of enchiladas in a creamy, cheesy dip! I'm still not quite sure how the bf and I came up with it, but it started with a craving and ended with us dragging everything out of the pantry to try to find something to appease us! Can be made in the microwave or crockpot. Great use for leftover chicken!"

Remove with hot pads and stir.
Return to microwave and heat for 1 minute intervals, removing from microwave to stir, until the cheese is completely melted and the dip is heated all the way through.

In a medium mixing bowl, blend together the cream of chicken soup and the cream cheese, breaking the cream cheese up with the back of the spoon, if necessary.
Add cream cheese/soup mixture to crockpot.

Hello, all! Thanks to all the great recipes and tips from the community here at Recipezaar, I think I'm finally getting this whole cooking thing down! FYI: When I review recipes, I take into account that I have to alter recipes so my BF will actually eat it - no mushrooms and no peppers! I realize this alters the taste slightly, but there's not much I can do about it if I don't want him to go on a hunger strike! I also try to use low fat and/or low cal alteratives. Gotta watch that waistline! :) I always try to give a kind, thoughtful review, even if the recipe didn't work out for me. <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-Participant.jpg"> <img src="http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/My-3-Chefs%20banners/my3chefs2008Small.jpg"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSCParticipationBanner.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
