  1. This was easy to put together, but the recipe did not state the amount of ground chicken. I used 1 pound an everything turn out great. I can't wait to try the leftovers. Thanks for sharing.
     
  2. This was good and easy. The only change I made was to use a 13oz. can of shredded chicken. DH loved it, but wished it had more layers. I will use smaller tortillas next time and a deeper pan. His only complaint was too many bell peppers (but that's just his personal preference). Thanks so much!!
     
  3. gets one star, because this is by no means low carb! beans and corn?! 50 carbs per serving!!! please!!
     
  4. I enjoyed this recipe especially the second night after all the flavors had meshed together. I did add more cheese because I love cheese. In the future I would add some tomato sauce because it was a bit spicy for us. I suggest putting sauce under the first layer of shells so the shell is moister.
