    OK, what can I say, making this again tonight. We love it. I put the chicken, water and onions in a crock pot and leave it all day. When I get home I follow the remainder of the recipe....fabulous and easy! My type of cooking! - 1/29/09

    Love this dish. I did add a pack of taco seasoning to the water, onion mixture and 4 oz. of low fat cream cheese before I put the chicken back in. I got 8 servings out of it. Family LOVED it. Will definitely make again!! - 2/8/09

    Delicious. I added 4oz of low fat cream cheese before adding the chicken and used canned green chilis and it was still amazing. It is a new staple at our house. - 2/3/09

    This was yummy...I used a little less water so that it wasn't runny. I also added some red enchilada sauce to the layering which added some extra flavor. - 2/3/09

    OK, Joe left a few things out of the directions...so I ad-libbed. No need to give less stars for it like some members have. We are after all human ;o). It is DELICIOUS! If you can't have spicy mexican due to stomach problems leave chilis out. WE LOVE IT AND WILL MAKE IT AGAIN!!! :O) Thanks Joe - 1/30/09

    Thanks, I am still learning that you have to put all the instructions down I am so not used to writing out recipes! I live in New Mexico so our green chile (anahiem peppers)is fresh and super hot, I didn't realize that everyone else might not have access to the same great chile! Thanks again!
