Amazing chicken salad! I used pinto beans instead of black beans and made some flour tortillas to put on the side. I also put some ranch on top and my guests raved about it and there was not anything left!

this was really good, honestly i kept putting off making it because i didn't have high hopes. Yeah, this is a keeper, make it just as stated but substituted red onion for scallions. Thanks for the recipe!

This was very light and refreshing! I used a can of corn and cooked the chicken in the remaining taco seasoning mix to give it a bit of spice. Both my DH and I really enjoyed it and he went back for seconds!

Very yummy! I used a whole red pepper and can of corn instead of corn on the cob. I also tried heating it up with a little salsa, and then putting it on a flour tortilla. Very fresh tasting, definitely a keeper!
