4 oz can mild green chilis

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

For the Pico de Gallo:

4 Roma tomatoes, diced

1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped

2 tablespoons lime juice

1/2 teaspoon salt

For Serving:

Tortilla chips or sliced bell peppers

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

2. In a large Pyrex or baking dish, combine the shredded chicken, salsa verde, green chilis, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, HALF of the pepper jack cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir until well mixed. Sprinkle the remaining pepper jack evenly over the top.

Why Greek Yogurt & Whipped Cream Cheese?

Swapping traditional sour cream and full-fat cream cheese for Greek yogurt and whipped cream cheese cuts down on unnecessary fat while keeping that creamy, decadent texture. You still get the richness without compromising your goals.
