ditch the peach salsa, add BBQ shredded chicken

bywendika, June 7, 2008

Recipe was quick and easy...only prep time (cutting)....was a little sweet for me with the peach salsa, which I could have done without. My recs? 1) Regular salsa or the roasted tomato salsa from TJ's is good with the dish instead of the peach salsa 2) Instead of Just Chicken, I kicked it up a notch with the BBQ shredded chicken (in refrigerator section). Tasty! 3) add corn to the black bean/salsa mixture. Enjoy!
