We got this recipe from Ma--here are a few variations we've come up with:
Marc and I usually use 6 chicken breasts and cube them and cook those off instead of left-over chicken. Seems to taste better. Also, the recipe calls for chili without beans--we use anything we have on hand and that's usually a veggie chili you can buy anywhere. The taste doesn't vary depending on the chili. And, instead of regular jack cheese, we use pepper jack--adds a bit of a kick. We serve this over white rice, but you can go without that if you want to.
