1 package of cream cheese
1 can turkey chili no beans
1 can of Rotel
Shredded mexican cheese blend

Spread cream cheese over bottom of square or round deep dish pan.
Then spread turkey chili over cream cheese and rotel over the chili.
Cover with shredded cheese. Microwave for 4-5 minutes or bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes.
I've never actually baked it, but I think it would turn out ok that way. Enjoy!
