Skinny Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Dip

Sometimes, you just feel like having snacks and appetizer style things for dinner. Or maybe that's just me and my family? This weekend has been a rainy one, and I'm not about to complain about that. We've been needing the rain and the cool off from the blaring Texas sun. Even so! With being stuck indoors and games and movies being the fun of the weekend, I thought it would be perfect for an appetizer night.

For whatever reason, rain always leaves me craving Mexican food. Namely enchiladas. That's why I went with this Skinny Green Chile Chicken Enchilada Dip as part of our rainy day spread. This dip tastes just like those famous cream cheese chiclen enchladas that we all know and love. The only difference is that this dip is guilt-free!

This dip is started off with a reduced fat cream cheese and some low-fat greek yogurt. The greek yogurt gives us a much needed boost of protein and a lot of other added goodies. Then there's the chiles, plenty of chicken, and of course cheese. Cheese is my weak point, especially in any kind of dip.

The end result here is a low-carb and gluten-free dip that everyone can enjoy! And I do mean that. Everyone will enjoy this dip. It's not spicy at all, so feel free to let the kiddos enjoy it too if they're a fan of chicken enchiladas.

I served my dip with a couple kinds of chips, blue corn, baked scoops, and even some mini bell peppers to give some variety. All of them were perfect for dipping, dunking, and scooping up this delicious dip!

The leftovers of this dip are on-point. My dad 'the king of leftovers' got in late (my parents were staying with me this weekend) and he re-purposed the dip as a spread on the base of some tostadas.
