This was a nice light and easy dinner to make! I left out the bell peppers and added some diced avocado to the top. I think next time I will use tortilla strips on the top rather than the chips (personal preference). Will be added into our hot weather/easy meals rotation. Made for ZWT 7-THE HOT PINK LADIES. -
This was a very tasty lunch! I used corn chips instead of tortilla, but otherwise did everything else as written. Very light, and a great way to dress up the Suddenly Salad! We will definitely be having this again! Thanks for sharing! -
WOW, is this ever good! It's the first time I have every tried Suddenly Salad and I must say we were very impressed. It's quick, easy and very flavorful.....perfect! Great when you need a pasta fix. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken and veggies. Thanks so much for sharing it, iewe.

I am the mother of three, wife of one :)
My teenager is the pickiest eater in the world, while my 3 year old will eat anything (though has been acting more and more fickle lately). Our newest addition was born in June 2008, so she doesn't really know much in the way of varieties of food. My husband says "I don't care what you fix, as long as it has meat in it."
I have thousands of recipes saved on my computer from over the years, and am constantly on the lookout for new ones. I also seem to have accumulated hundreds of cookbooks over the years. I am (slowly) trying to go thru all the recipes I have saved and add them to 'Zaar, but this will take some time. I try to only post things that my family (or I) will eat (though I haven't necessarily yet tried every recipe I have posted).
