{NEW} Creamy Green Chile Loaded Chicken Bake  A Family Favorite Weeknight Dinner…


{NEW} Creamy Green Chile Loaded Chicken Bake ??? A Family Favorite Weeknight Dinner idea!

On occasion we do enjoy a creamy baked meal using real cream cheese.
This might only happen a handful of times each year…but we sure do enjoy it!
My favorite brand of cream cheese is pasture raised “Organic Valley.” For this recipe I REALLY recommend the cream cheese, but Plain Greek yogurt also works.

I haven’t come up with a dairy free version of this particular recipe, as everyone in my family does enjoy dairy in moderation.

If you have a dairy free suggestion will you leave it below in the comments to help out our #Crushers , as we’re aware that dairy allergies and intolerances are a very real thing!
