Kitty’s Notes:

I love this chicken taco recipe!  I make it ALL the time.  It has a ton of flavor and it’s so easy.  You will not regret making this recipe! Plus, it’s only 220 calories per serving.

The only change I make is that I add around 1 cup water, when I add in all the other ingredients, because otherwise I find it a little thick.  I freeze any leftovers in individual sized containers and then I have an easy, healthy lunch ready to go.
