For dinner tonight, I made chicken taco salad. It's easy, delicious and a great way to get some extra mileage out of left overs.
Ingredients
soft shell tortilla-burrito size works best
shredded chicken-left over from yesterday's fried chicken
1/2 cup dry rice-cooked
1 packet taco seasoning
Mix chicken, rice, and taco seasoning well. Add a few tablespoons of water if necessary.
Toppings
4 diced tomatoes (or canned diced tomatoes drained)
salsa
1 can spicy beans
Shredded lettuce
Shredded cheese-any flavor
Sour cream
Create a taco shell bowl
Preheat oven to 350. Gently push a tortilla in a glass bowl to form a tortilla bowl. Try not to break or crack it but allow it to curve in an out so it will fit in the bowl. I used a glass cereal bowl. Place bowls on a cookie sheet and bake for approximately 10-15 minutes till the shell is hard and crispy. Allow to cool.
Layer chicken mixture, shredded lettuce, beans, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, salsa, and sour cream. Buen provecho! Enjoy your meal!
