Let me start by saying my kids love this. It is a kid friendly and fun meal. I know it is not the healthiest of dinner choices, but it is a good. Monica recently posted a similar recipe that her family enjoys.
I love to make a meal like this when I am tempted to go out to dinner. This may not be the healthiest meal, but it is healthier and cheaper than eating dinner out.
Serve this with a salad and you have a quick and easy dinner in no time. I like to keep cooked chicken in the freezer just for meals like this. It makes putting this dish together much easier.
I have a similar version of this I make with beef that we also enjoy.

Have you posted your homemade cream of chicken soup recipe? I would love to try it.

@Tara Rison, I have not posted my homemade cream soup. Mainly because I am still tweaking it to get it like I want it. It works, but I want to improve it. When I get it right, I will be sure to post it, because several others have asked.
This dish looks yummy! My kids love chicken, mexican and anything with cheese so it would be a hit for me, I’m sure! Thanks for sharing! Come see me sometime at

Have a great day!
I just recently had this (or a similar dish) at a scrapbooking retreat. It was really good!
That looks de-lish!
This looks fast, easy and really yummy!
Yum! We’ll have to try this out. Thanks for sharing!
This looks AWESOME! Hey, sometimes fast and family friendly trump healthy – a meal can be terribly healthy, but what difference if the kids don’t eat it? Fun needs to happen occasionally!
