This is a simple recipe to double if you're catering to a crowd. And for those who prefer a spicier dish, add a teaspoon of cayenne pepper. —Margaret Latta, Paducah, Kentucky

My family loves this recipe, and I do too! Nothing better than throw it in and forget it! I do drain the juice off before I add in the cream cheese. I like the mixture to be a little thicker. I make this a lot on vacation when we are out site seeing all day, come home, throw in the cream cheese get cleaned up and dinner is ready!!!

Grey goop. The appearance and texture of this recipe is far from appealing, but the flavor is pretty good. I recommend draining the tomatoes- unless you like your burritos extra sloppy. Maybe some rice would be a nice addition...

I might try again but without cream cheese. This was easy to make.

Loved this recipe! In addition to 2 fresh chicken breast halves I added a leftover grilled chicken breast just to get rid of it. I easily could have just used 1 breast half with that addition. I also cut back on the cumin, 3 Tbsp sounded like a lot and cumin is not high on our list of flavors. I used the Rotelle original along with the jalepeno (de-seeded) and it was was a good compromise for my give-me-fire hubby and my less-heat self. He added more red pepper flakes to his individual burrito and was happy.

Margaret, you have created a wonderful recipe. I only have 3 mouths to feed so I cut the incredients in half and it came out fantastic. I plan on adding the left over rotel and black beans to tonight's Chili.

I made this dish in the crock pot, and took it in to work. It tasted great and was so easy. It was excellent comfort food for a hard day!
