This recipe took no time at all and was a big hit with everyone ! I did not have everything on hand. I used the chicken, blackbeans, the roasted potatoes, heated, then mixed with greens, & topped w/cheese. It was fantastic ! We make it all the time now.

This is an easy flavor packed meal for a buffet or a quick dinner. My husband asks for it at least once a week!
