Santa Fe Chicken Tacos!

  As I post more recipes you'll see I LOVE mexican food, it's my favorite! (Next to chocolate that is)  Tonight's dinner was a quick & easy one but delicious!  Perfect for a week night meal.  I have been trying to stay on the low carb meal plan & thusly the Santa Fe Chicken Tacos were born! 
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp taco seasoning  
- philadelphia cream cheese santa fe cooking cream (only half the small container)
- 1 small can chopped green chili's 
- Dash of diced onions
Bake the chicken in water for 30 mins at 350 with a sprinkle of taco seasoning on them.  Once baked slice/shred the chicken & begin warming all other ingredients in pan on the stove together.  Then just add the chicken into the pan & stir all together & your done! And it's SOOOO good! You can then use this chicken mixture on top of a salad or wrapped in a low carb tortilla.  Either way is delicious & leftovers heat up perfect for lunch the next day!  I had raw broccoli as my side but lightly dipped it in a chipotle ranch dip (2 tbsp=2 carbs) to make it feel more themed with the mexican dinner but healthy!
*You can also add sour cream, guac or salsa for more flavor but I didn't use any of these to keep carb & fat content down.
