This was yummy, but there wasn't anything particularly striking about it. While it wasn't amazing by itself, I /would/ recommend it in burritos -- that's what I did with the leftovers!! I guess my biggest issue of having the meal by itself was that none of the flavors really stood out - the ingredients all blended together too much i guess. It has potential though!! :)
