This ingredient list is so simple. You can find everything you need just about anywhere. I always recommend going with the freshest ingredients you can find but if you want to take the easy way out of cooking and shredding the chicken, feel free to buy a rotisserie chicken to shred.

• 1 tablespoon olive oil, optional
• 2 bell peppers, seeded and sliced
• 1 large or 2 small onion, seeded and sliced
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
• 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
• 2 cups shredded Monterey jack cheese
