1/3 cup chicken broth or water (more if needed)
1 can cream of chicken soup, condensed
1 can cream of mushroom soup, condensed
4 ounces canned chopped green chiles
1/2 onion chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 handful spinach leaves

, combine all of the sauce ingredients in a food processor or blender, adding more broth or water if needed.

Boil and shred chicken. Place into a large mixing bowl. Add chopped green onion, chopped green chiles (or jalapenos), and about half of the grated pepper jack cheese. Mix about 1 cup of sauce into the chicken mixture to stick it all together.
