    Definitely yum! We all loved it in this house, with the kids having second serves.

    Tried this one tonight, loved it. My cream cheese didn’t melt in to everything so I would probably cook a bit longer at the end (or add some sauce to it and mix before adding to jug).

    As I was making it I thought that this is why I love TRTLMT – had no idea what I was going to cook – had just bought chicken, had a bit of a search on the website and had everything for this. Everyday ingredients not ones you’ve never heard of ๐Ÿ™‚

    Unfortunately I found this runny and not overly flavoursome. I may have got the wrong Philly cheese, as I could only find snack tubs.

      The snack tubs are softer and give a runnier result. I use the large tub.

    Hi! Love this page, has become my new best friend! I have also had trouble locating the normal tin of the spreadable cream cheese in the chine flavour and could only find the snack tubs – would I be better of using just normal cream cheese or a combination of the both? Thanks,

    How many serves is this roughly? How well does it keep in the freezer?

    Thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

      Approximately 4-6 serves depending on size. I don’t freeze it but I know others do ๐Ÿ™‚
