Warm chicken nacho dip

Outrageous Warm chicken Nacho Dip - All recipes

I use the Velveeta 2% version to cut down on fat by half. I also omit the taco seasoning because of the sodium count. Of course, nonfat, plain Greek yogurt for the sour cream, and that cuts down on the fat content as well. I have never had to add the milk to thin it out. I prefer it thick like an enchilada filling.

My homemade taco seasoning:

2tsp of chili powder,

2 tsp of cumin (cut it down to 1tsp if you are not into cumin, we love it so I use more than usual)

1/2 tsp of cayenne pepper,

1tsp white pepper,

1Tbsp of dry chopped onion,

2tsp of Garlic powder,

1tsp of Onion powder,

2tsp of Paprika.

Once I have boiled and shred the chicken breast, I toss them in a pan with 1Tbsp of olive oil and just heat it through with all the above spices. I also boil my own black Beans instead of canned. They just taste better in my opinion.

I have made this in the crock pot and on the stove top. We eat this as a main meal usually. The kiddo and husband roll up the mixture into flour tortillas, and I typically eat it by itself or with a few tortilla chips. John likes it with corn tossed in the mix as well.

Ingredients

  • 1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers (such as RO*TEL?), drained
  • 1 (1 pound) loaf processed cheese food (such as Velveeta?), cubed
  • 2 large cooked skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, shredded
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup diced green onion
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons taco seasoning mix
  • 2 tablespoons minced jalapeno pepper, or to taste (optional)
  • 1 cup black Beans, rinsed and drained

Directions

  1. Place the diced tomatoes, processed cheese, chicken meat, sour cream, green onion, taco seasoning, and jalapeno pepper into a slow cooker. Cook on High, stirring occasionally until the cheese has melted and the dip is hot, 1 to 2 hours. Stir in the black beans, and cook 15 more minutes to reheat.

Footnotes


  • Cook's Note
  • If the dip gets too thick, thin with small amounts of milk.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
