Trailer Park Mexican Chicken


© Allison Huller McAlister

This week’s new trial recipe certainly was an interesting concoction. In a nutshell, the dish is chicken, Velveeta®, and Doritos®. Let me say now that my five-year old thought it was delicious, which figures since my husband said the meal reminded him of something that a child would have created.

The processed cheese in this casserole is just too much. My husband commented during the meal that it was just too rich and compared it to eating butter. He thought maybe it should be served atop a taco salad or something. Afterwards, he said he felt as if he’d just eaten a whole can of squeeze cheese. Blech.

I’d have to agree with him on this one. It’s just a little too sickening for my taste. We give this one 2 stars.

Have a good week and good eating!
