Introduction

This receipe was revised from one I found at kraftfoods.com. They used ground skinless chicken breast but I prefer turkey. I also prefer the Tostitos Gold Tortilla Chips - they don't get as soggy and add a crunch. This receipe was revised from one I found at kraftfoods.com.

    Incredible!
    Yum. Had this for dinner tonight and it went over very well. Have already been asked to make it again. Only change I made was to use lower sodium taco seasoning to cut back on salt. The recipe calls for fat free sour cream but the nutrition breakdown says low fat. - 11/22/15

    I should have made a double batch. My husband, kids, and even the boys girlfriends loved this recipe. I didn't change anything but may add diced green chilies to the sour cream and cottage mixture next time. Will be making this again and again. - 12/21/09
