I'm not much on canned meat so I put boneless chicken breasts (5) in the crock pot with chicken broth for 9 hours on low while I was at work. When I got home I removed chicken from crock pot, shredded and then followed recipe minus chili powder. My kids don't like spicy food so the Fiesta Nacho Cheese sauce was spicy enough for us. I did use 2 cans of cheese add 1/2 can of milk for the consistency we like. It's not gourmet, but it was quick, easy and tasty!

I made this as written and tasted it and it tasted like can cheese and nothing else. So I added some sour cream, cumin, jalpenos, and some garlic salt. This add some flavor to the meat mixture. Not sure I would make this again.

My husband loved it and he is a picky eater! It was so easy to fix and with a little sour cream, cilantro, and some homemade salsa it is amazing! I will make this a regular for taco night!

Liked this a lot. Couldn't find Fiesta Nacho Cheese Soup so had to add minced dehydrated onion, the chili powder, a 4 oz. can of green chilies and a couple of spoonsful of salsa to Cheddar Cheese soup. Toasting the taco shells made a world of difference, too. Used shredded chicken poached in broth.

I came so close to just re-writing this recipe and posting it on this site instead of reviewing this one since I made so many changes but I decided to give it it it's due. I gave it 5 stars so people would not discount this one as with the changes it was soooo good! I bought a rotisserie chicken and shredded that instead of using the canned chicken. Almost as easy as popping a can and so much better tasting. I sauted the onion in the oil and then tossed in the chicken. I sprinkled a little salt, pepper and garlic powder over it (no chili powder). Then I added the soup and a small container of sour cream and it was amazing! It tasted like a dish you would get in a mexican food place. Took about 15 minutes for the whole thing and so yummy!

Yum! I used what I had on hand, which was Velveeta, salsa & green chiles. We really liked this! Even my picky 7 year old loved it. Of course, with Velveeta it thickened up a bit, but it was still good. My husband even suggested using it as a nacho topping.

I like these tacos much better than regular tacos. I made a few changes to the recipe.... Since I cook for a large family, it was cheaper for me to buy a block of Velveeta than a bunch of cans of cheese so I melted the Velveeta with a can of Rotel tomatoes. I'm not a fan of canned chicken so I used grilled diced chicken from the frozen food section. I broke down the chicken into smaller chunks as I sauted it in the oil with the onions and chili powder. We ate them with whole grain taco shells. A YUMMY QUICK MEAL!
