Mom's Tips

  • 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese
  • 1 small jar green chilies, chopped
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 can white chicken meat (don’t drain)

Combine all ingredients in a small crock pot.  I usually preheat the mixture in a microwave, or you can heat it in the crock pot, until the cheese is melted and all ingredients are mixed well.  Serve with crackers.
