I layered mine in crockpot, starting with Rotel, then 1 can of each, as well as half of the veggies, and half taco seasoning, then repeated with the rest.

2
Continue to layer it with 1 can of each and rest of taco seasoning and diced veg/herbs.

3
Then add the shredded chicken on top, since it's already cooked.
-
4
Set to high.
-
5
Top with cream cheese.

6
Make sure to cut into pieces and put them evenly throughout on top all around.

7
Once it starts melting, give it all-A GOOD STIR.

8
Then add the garlic powder, salt and cracked pepper.

9
Stir again.

And continue to check on it from time to time and stir, making sure the cream cheese has no lumps:)

Once all the cream cheese has completely melted and no lumps...change setting to low and let simmer for an hour or 2

Once done, give it a good stir again.

And it should look like this:) also...see my next direction for tips, etc about the queso and shredded cheese.

Tips: Tip 1:If you can't find the Mexican corn, you can get 2 cans of the whole kernel corn and add a jar of chunky salsa but really try to find the can Mexicorn (it has awesome flavor) Del Monte and green giant brands have it.

Tip 2:I made steamed rice, and added taco seasoning to the water and stir it before I put in my rice cooker.

Tip 3: once rice is done, add your rice to your plate, top with the crockpot mixture, and you can top it with queso dip, shredded Mexican blend cheese, some of the green onions, and a lil fresh cilantro if you had any of the green onions and cilantro left.

You can also just do this instead of adding the queso and shredded cheese to crockpot.

Also, you can serve with rice as I listed above, tostitos, or cut some tortilla bread in triangles, or make a taco or quesadilla out of it.
