Green Chile Cream Cheese Spread
"Use this on Tortillas and top with your favorite taco or fajita toppings. You can also spread it on a tortilla, roll it up and slice crosswise into 1/4 inch slices for a tasty and easy canape. I also stuff chicken breasts with this and dredge them in a coating, then bake. Very versatile and you can tweak it to your tastes. Add chili powder, roasted garlic, etc."

Love this. Breakfast on a cold morning, it really warms you up on the inside. I use roasted hot chiles (don’t care for the canned) and omit the garlic. -
Carrie, this is really good. I used fresh garlic and rolled it up in some lavosh. Next time I want to try stuffing chicken breasts with it. Quite good!
