- ¼ cup diced green chilies (optional)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, mix together cottage cheese, shredded chicken, enchilada sauce, cheddar cheese, green chilies, ground cumin, and chili powder. Stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Microwave the bowl on high for 1 to 2 minutes until heated through and the cheese is melted.
- Stir gently, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve immediately.
Notes
- To make it vegetarian, swap the chicken for black beans or roasted vegetables.
- For a spicier dish, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
