  • Number of Servings: 2
Ingredients
* 3 oz canned chicken* pinch of powdered chicken bullion or chicken soup base* 1 T thin salsa or picante sauce – mild (pre-blend and strain if chunky)* 1/2 tsp cumin* 1/2 tsp chili powder* salt and pepper* 1 T 2% Shredded Mexican Cheese Blend
Directions
1. Drain and rinse chicken well. I usually use a little hand held fine mesh strainer.
2. Put everything but the cheese into a Magic Bullet with the single blade or in a micro food processor. Pulse until well blended and fine. *depending upon the chicken and the salsa you may need to add a little water to get everything moving right* Also be sure to taste for seasoning and adjust accordingly.
3. Transfer to small microwavable plate and sprinkle with cheese.
4. Microwave for 30-60 seconds until cheese is melty and chicken mixture is heated through.
