Teresa’s Chicken “Paste”
DH loved this, and insisted I ought to post it. Since he rarely takes an interest in the NG, I'm complying. I'm actually surprised with the way it came out, but it would be good as a dip. I expected more chunks of chicken, not so much of a paste.

... Take first four ingredients and combine in food processor w/metal blade. This is the basic "paste" or dip. Then make a layer of lettuce and cheese. Fairly simple. Way too much food for two people, we'll be eating it with pork rinds for days, and I'll probably have to eat it for a couple of meals. There are a lot of carbs in a packet of taco seasoning, but it is so much food, a serving will make that negligible. Makes about 8 servings.
It did NOT turn out the way I expected, but it was a fun experiment.
