This recipe was so easy to put together in the crock pot. The flavor was fantastic. My changes were to omit the jalapeno and the crushed red pepper flakes. I did add a 4oz can of diced green chilis. Finally, I used frozen whole kernal corn instead of canned, because that is what I had on hand. This will be a regular in our household.

Wonderful recipe! Even better topped with onions and cilantro!

We loved this. The chicken was moist, the flavor was not too spicy but still flavorful... I will definitely make it again!

My whole family enjoyed this. I left out the jalapenos, and we added sliced avacados to the toppings. Nice heat without being too much. It looked pretty liquid-y before adding the cream cheese, but once it melted, it was great- just served it with a slotted spoon.

I just made this earlier tonight, and it was very good. I didn't use the entire amount of cumin the recipe called for, but it was still very flavorful. My boyfriend was making yum noises as he was eating them, and he can be a little picky sometimes, so I will definitely be making this again!

My family is not picky and we eat a huge variety of foods. So, I was really surprised after such great reviews of this recipe to have every single person in my hating this recipe. I got a much better approval from my family when I substituted the can of tomatoes & all the seasons with a jar of salsa.

Umm... This was AMAZING! It was very creamy. I didn't have time to use a crock pot, so I just cooked the chicken on the stovetop and added the other ingredients like it says in the recipe. Yum, Yum, Yum! The only complaint I have is that I ate WAY too much! :)

With 3 kids in sports, always looking for a new slow cooker recipe and this one was a hit! Thinking Ro-Tel is already spicy enough, I left out the jalapenos but while the end product was delicious, it didn't have any heat. Will add the jalapenos next time. Also used only half the amount of cumin. Wish I'd seen the suggestion of adding green onions and cilantro before serving dinner...will definitely try that next time!
