“Just made this yesterday, so good! I made the tomato rice and quick seasoned black beans to go with it, though I subbed out pinto beans for black beans...something about the black bean juice just freaks me out. I like spicy, so I used the whole 7oz can of chip” — a cook, 5.0★
“I don’t know what’s up the the reviews… I really liked it. I wish I would have added more juice from the Chipotle can though, didn’t think about that. The pineapple salsa was such a good balance for the heat. I served it with cilantro lime rice. Also FYI, ” — a cook, 5.0★
